ARCCATLG—Archive catalog parameter


Use the Modify Archive Catalog Indicator panel or the ARCCATLG command to specify whether the subsystem archive log data sets are cataloged when they are created. If you have switched archiving from tape to DASD, Db2 will force the cataloging of archive log data sets even when the catalog parameter is turned off. You can eliminate the messages from Db2 about forced cataloging by using this element to dynamically turn on the archive catalog parameter.

Warning

Important

ARCCATLG applies only when tapes or cartridges are used for the archive logs.
