Maintaining repositories with the CPC SP utility


You can use the CPC stand-alone processing (SP) repository maintenance utility for the following purposes:

  • To expand, reload, and perform other maintenance tasks for all types of CPC-managed repositories (including ADV, BRI, FP, and IPT repository types)
  • To perform maintenance tasks against the repositories while the CPC subsystem is unavailable

By default, the SP utility is executed automatically whenever the CPC subsystem determines that a repository expansion or software-level migration of repositories is required. You can also request a batch execution of the SP utility as a batch program. The SP utility provides better performance than the standard CPC repository utility (program CPCUTIL) if your repositories are large (500,000 records or more).
