ERROR
When users attempt to archive non-versioned data, the following error message is encountered:
“Failed to enable archiving. Invalid column data type.”
This error occurs if:
• In SQL Server, SDEBINARY is specified as the GEOMETRY_STORAGE type when feature classes are created.
• In Oracle, SDELOB is specified as the GEOMETRY_STORAGE type when feature classes are created.
Feature classes created with SDEBINARY or SDELOB as the geometry storage type are not supported for non-versioned archiving.
