The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
There are a few options to start save while active. You really need to
RTM.
Using *LIB or *SYNCLIB will require the users exit for a brief time while
you do the "checkpoint processing" (again RTM).
Using *SYSDFN will not. HOWEVER, if you use *SYSDFN and if your
applications do something like write to a order header file and an order
line and update the item warehouse file on the press of a single enter key
it is possible that part of that transaction will be on the save (like the
order header part) and the other part may not (like the order line and the
item warehouse). What will happen is that your user department will
insist on using *SYSDFN and that is what you will choose. We had our
outage of the data library down to a few minutes and that still wasn't
acceptable - insisted on no outage at all. Therefore it's not necessary
that the backups be usable in a restore (sarcasm intended).
