Our QuestView product, if current, has an Undelete function built in. It
is essentially a customized version of Dave McKenzie's UNDEL2, and there
is absolutely no doubt in my mind that DBU's undelete function is also a
customized version of UNDEL2, simply because Dave McKenzie's UNDEL2 is
the only thing I've ever heard of that can undelete in DB2/400 (and yes,
what Mr. Gundermann described is a fair description of how UNDEL2 works,
and Mr. Young's link points to a page describing UNDEL2, and providing a
download).
In addition to what Mr. Musselman said about REORG, I will also say (and
I speak from experience) that if there are any VARLEN fields in this
file, you can kiss anything beyond the "allocated length" of those
fields good-bye, because anything beyond the "allocated length" is
stored in the file's variable-length-string-space (presumably a heap of
some sort), which nobody has found a way to access.
