Remarks

The RegisterAsRasterCatalog method provides a way to upgrade an 8.x embedded raster catalog to a 9.x raster catalog, because an 8.x raster catalog doesnt have an OID or a GEOMETRY type column in its business table while a 9.x raster catalog does. This method will add these two columns to the raster catalog table and populate the Geometry column with the extent of each raster dataset in the raster catalog. This method works only with ArcSDE geodatabase.
