Re: recovery of qsys/qadbifld file...

Don,

    The best way to fix this is run a RCLSTG.  If you are on V4, all you need to
do is to take the option on RCLSTG to SELECT *DBXREF.

    You see while QADBIFLD has a hugh number of deleted records, it cant be
reorganized, because QDBSRVXR & QDBSRVXR1 jobs have locks on the file.  So the
only way to get around this is to do a ENDSBS *ALL, and then run the RCLSTG as
noted above. If they are on a CISC version, you can also bring the system to a
restricted state and call the program QDBRCLXR.

    If you need more info, call me.
