Anyone out there tonight that knows their way around ARCserve 2000 using the velocis engine?

I've read the techdoc http://support.ca.com/techbases/as2000/as2k-1521.html and moved all the rAAA* and rdm.* files out of the database folder. Then I'm running the CLI tools against the DBs.

First with the dbcheck util but it bombed on asobject, stopping the database engine.

Then I restarted the engine and tried it out on astpsdat. The damn thing crawls, finding error after error so I ctrl-c to stop it and figure may as well forget about checking further since I already know it's toast.

So I switch to dbfix astpsdat and the damn thing has been chugging for hours. No idea how much longer it may go and I still have asobject to deal with.

In the past, I've given up on fixing and just ended up re-init'ing the DBs. Having a grey hair moment here... can't remember what these two DBs hold so not sure what I would lose.

Any thoughts?
