"I" and "J" files (ASCII "I" and "J" followed by a number of digits).
AFAIK this only happens if you have DUMPING ENABLED for
the TurboIMAGE database in question.

:DBUTIL
>>SHOW <database_name> FLAGS

will tell you if your database is enabled for DUMPING.  I did a
call with the RC long ago and asked if there is any performance
penalty during normal operation to leaving DUMPING enabled
all the time.   HP answer:  No.

*IF* you ever have one of those rare IMAGE aborts, the contents
of the "I" and "J" files may assist the HP RC in figuring out what
happened...
