VST data values come in negative

[mehta_rohit]

Hi All

I am using 9.1d and some the of the values in VST appears in negative. The DB is up and running.. Is there any way to reset/ initialize these values..
When these values/counters become to ZERO.
Thanks in advance for help

thanks

9.1D is ancient, obsolete and unsupported. Among the many bugs are these VST counter overflows. Many VSTs are 32 bit values, some are smaller. When the counters overflow they go negative...

OpenEdge 10 fixes that.

There is also a "proutil dbname -C zerostats" option in 9.1E04. You should be able to upgrade from 9.1D to 9.1E04 painlessly -- no recompile, db conversion, dump & load or other action is required.

Yes. Restarting the database zeros the counters.
