Folks,
Over the holiday one of our developers deleted 20,000,000 records from a physical file as they were no longer needed. This HUGE physical file ( even after 20 M records deleted) has 19 logicals built over it. On Sunday morning, a scheduled job ran (which was not planned), that did a RGZPFM over this mess. The end result was that it put an 870 8-Way running SMP on it's knees for 13 hours. No matter what I tried, I could not get the IDX-<access path name> running under QDBSRVxx jobs to ease up.
I did find the following Knowledge Base document (after the fact):
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/ce197905697c4c6086256a4f007978f7/17 bb5f5d63273150862565c2007ce9e5?OpenDocument
Now for my $64 K questions: Had I used the EDTRBDAP command, could I have
put the active access path rebuilds on hold? Would the active IDX entries
have to have completed before the *HLD entries would have taken effect? I
am trying to understand how I could have got this under control in the least
amount of time.
Mike,
You could have used the RMVM command to remove the members from all of the logical files. Then do the RGZPFM. Then ADDLFM one logical file at a time in a batch CL.
