WARNING Dangerous Upgrade path!

Ok, settle down. I just migrated from 80520 to 81600 on Siemens and the migrate consistently choked on the AQ$ update stuff. Something to do with objects...raw data types....

Oracle provided a patch which did not work. We finally had to migrate
holding the database at compatible=8.0.5.2.0, but....we think the
AQ$ stuff may be held back at that level....not sure, and oracle
sure as hell ain't telling.

anyway, heads up.

truncate doesn't change the hwm unless you drop storage

also, depending on the number of extents (not the number of rows), it can take a long time to free up storage if you do truncate table ... drop storage.

Oracle has to update the UET$ and FET$ tables for each extent you release.
