Re: Strange Message in Backup's Joblog

["Robertson, Scott" <SRobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

According to the DTAARA, RCLSTG has never been run on this box.  I have
never done one either.  Looks like I'm going to get a "crash course" in
RCLSTG this weekend (pun intended, but hoping for the best).
I've looked through the manual and have a question.  It states that
"damaged database files for which data still exists are rebuilt as
field-level files" and evidently saves them into QRCL library.  
What are "field-level files"? 
Since the library that is coughing up the error message contains only
data files, I'm very interested in this definition, as well as what it
will take to restore this file back to original/useable condition.

        You may have not detected damage, but you certainly have damage.
It is
        possible that an object is partially damaged, but is working
properly from
        a database perspective.

        I would suggest a RCLSTG.
