Discard file


If you request that discarded rows be saved, File-AID/RDX writes rows discarded to the discard file during SQL Insert and delete processing.

The discard file has the following characteristics:

File organization

Sequential (DSORG=PS)

Record format

Variable-blocked (RECFM=VB)

Logical record length

Maximum LRECL determined by File-AID/RDX

File-AID/RDX uses this file during delete processing and during load processing when you specify the SQL Insert processing option. See Load and Delete for more information about how File-AID/RDX uses this file.

The structure of this file is similar to that of the extract file. See File-AID/RDX Extract File.
