Error description

  • At the end of import processing messages are issued that include
    file and byte counts. These values may not be accurate as the
    values are 32bit integers that get printed as 64bit.
    10/24/2016 11:05:31   ANR0627I IMPORT NODE: Copied 0 file spaces
    0 archive files, 140634409140313 backup files, and
    140634409140224 space managed files. (SESSION: 51622, PROCESS:
    71)
    10/24/2016 11:05:31   ANR0630I IMPORT NODE: Copied 6652437
    kilobytes of data. (SESSION: 51622, PROCESS: 71)
    10/24/2016 11:05:31   ANR0986I Process 71 for IMPORT NODE
    running in the BACKGROUND processed 90 items for a total of
    6,812,096,344 bytes with a completion state of SUCCESS at
    11:05:31 AM. (SESSION: 51622, PROCESS: 71)
    In the reporting case no data was imported because filespace=
    was used instead of unifilespace= and all the data on the export
    volume was unicode. So the incorrect values in the messages
    indicated data was actually imported when in fact nothing was.
