Symptoms

After Siebel 22.11 upgrade from IP16, all MSSQL Server Column of data type nvarchar(max) were changed to ntext data type with the below Error

An online operation cannot be performed for index 'EIM_COMM_U1' because the index contains column 'COMM_TEXT' of data type text, ntext, image or FILESTREAM. For a non-clustered index, the column could be an include column of the index. For a clustered index, the column could be any column of the table. If DROP_EXISTING is used, the column could be part of a new or old index. The operation must be performed offline.

Checked in sql server studio and shows column as ntext but in IP16 it shows as nvarchar(max)
