Performs maintenance on the ATCINFO file.

Syntax

RECOVER

Prerequisites

None.

Description

Use the RECOVER command to perform maintenance on the ATCINFO file. The default name of the ATCINFO file is DBEnvironmentNameCR with up to six characters of the DBEnvironmentName. Maintenance for the ATCINFO file may be necessary in either of the following situations:

  • If a crash occurs while the ATCINFO file is being modified. This may be the case if a crash takes place when the IMAGE/SQL administrator is in the midst of an IMAGE/SQL utility command that updates the ATCINFO file. When this occurs, the RECOVER command can be used to reconstruct the ATCINFO file.

  • If the ATCINFO file contains too much free space. This may be the case if multiple databases are attached and then some are detached from the DBEnvironment. When this occurs, the RECOVER command can be used to compact the data in the ATCINFO file and return the free space to the file system.

Example

In the following example, the ATCINFO file associated with the PartsDBE DBEnvironment (PARTSCR) is recovered.

   >>SET SQLDBE PartsDBE

   >>RECOVER

   Checking physical file consistency and recovering free space.

   Deleting unused mapped table entries.
