Doesn't work If you have say, a 100GB db and only 50GB free space.
Not nearly enough to duplicate. But plenty of breathing room for normal 
operation.

Various db's support in place upgrades. and I'm thankful I tried 
Informix's out on a test db first because it simply scribbled over all 
the data instead of upgrading. Support told me that can happen 
sometimes.  COOL HUH?
