RE: Checking DDM files

["Fisher, Don" <DRF@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I usually execute OPNDBF in a CL program.  Another way would be to specify
the USROPN option in the file specifications and check the error indicator
(LO indicator) when you open the file.

You can also determine if the connection has been lost by checking the error
indicator returned for each file operation.

Hope that helps.

How can I test in a batch program if a DDM file
(either over SNA or TCP/IP) is properly connected to
the remote physical file in order to prevent a CPF
failure while accessing it?
