+OK, now it is running and we can start experimenting with the table outside the main database setup. Remember we had
+
+```
+ProbeSetData | CREATE TABLE 'ProbeSetData' (
+ 'Id' int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
+ 'StrainId' int(20) NOT NULL,
+ 'value' float NOT NULL,
+ UNIQUE KEY 'DataId' ('Id','StrainId'),
+ KEY 'strainid' ('StrainId')
+) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
+```
+
+```
+DROP INDEX strainid ON ProbeSetData;
+DROP INDEX DataId ON ProbeSetData;
+```
+
+of course it starts making a copy of the whole table and takes hours(!) This is why we need over 200Gb free both on the DB directory and the tempdir of the mariadb server.
+
+```
+select count(Id) from ProbeSetData;
++------------+
+| count(Id) |
++------------+
+| 5173425135 |

+MariaDB [db_webqtl]> select max(Id),max(StrainId) from ProbeSetData;

+| max(Id) | max(StrainId) |

+| 1 | 2 | 5.006 |
+| 1 | 3 | 6.079 |
+| 1 | 4 | 6.414 |
++----+----------+-------+
+```
+
+```
+ALTER TABLE ProbeSetData MODIFY StrainId mediumint UNSIGNED NOT NULL;
+```
+
+Now the table is 58Gb without indices. Convert to innodb and add indices
+
+```
+CREATE INDEX id_index ON ProbeSetData(Id);
+ALTER TABLE ProbeSetData ENGINE = InnoDB;
+```
