In this blog post, let’s learn about the error message “25270 The version of the metadata in the system catalog must remain at version as long as user schemas of that version exist on node.” when working with HPE NonStop SQL/MX, the reason for the error and the solution to fix this error message.
Error Message
25270 The version of the metadata in the system catalog must remain at version as long as user schemas of that version exist on node.
Reason for the Error
Certain versions of user schemas cannot be represented in a higher version system schema. Such user schemas exist on the system, and an UPGRADE of all metadata in the system catalog to a higher version was attempted.
Solution
Either use the UPGRADE ALL METADATA command to upgrade all the metadata on the entire system or upgrade only the metadata in user catalogs before upgrading metadata in the system catalog
