Restart limitations

This topic describes the consequences of job failure during various phases of the load process.

The load process involves the following eight phases:

  1. Before access (STOP table space and indexes)
  2. SYSREC read, table space load, and keys sort
  3. Index build
  4. Duplicate key removal
  5. Switch phase
  6. After access (START table space and indexes)
  7. Final discard
  8. Completion

If a failure occurs before phase 3, the entire load process becomes non-restartable.

If a failure occurs during phase 3, BMC AMI Load restarts the load process, provided that the following conditions are met:

  • No nonpartitioned index (NPI) is in R/W status during the load.
  • You have not changed the table space or index status before restarting.

If a failure occurs during phase 4, the entire process becomes non-restartable.

When a non-restartable condition is detected, the BMC AMI Load product performs cleanup and one of the following tasks:

  • If you have specified RESTART, restarts
  • If QUICKEXIT is specified, terminates
