RESUME
The RESUME keyword is valid with the OREORG command.
You can specify this option in PLUSIN. The following table describes the keyword.
To do this | Specify this in HSRSYSIN |
|---|---|
Specify that the reorganization is not a continuation. | RESUME(NO) |
Specify that the reorganization is a continuation. | RESUME(YES) |
Specify that the reorganization is a continuation, and specify the key value of the restart record. | RESUME(YES,keyValue) |
Internal default: (NO) | |
Use the RESUME keyword to specify whether the reorganization is a continuation of a prior reorganization that was prematurely terminated.
If RESUME(YES) is specified, Online/Defrag resumes the reorganization at the restart record identified in the PDX data set. If the restart record cannot be retrieved, the reorganization starts anew.
If RESUME(YES, ...) is specified, you must specify the key value of the record with which to continue the reorganization. If no key value is specified, the information in the PDX restart record (if present) is used. If the restart record cannot be retrieved, the reorganization starts anew.
If you want to interrupt and later resume the same reorganization job, BMC recommends that you use the /F jobName, SHUTDOWN command to interrupt the reorganization. However, you can resume a reorganization after any method of termination (excluding MVS system failure).
Upon shutdown, Online/Defrag writes the restart record to the PDX.
For more information about the PDX data set name, see PDX-Online-Defrag-function.
