Re: This is weird, Re: DAMAGED PF (CPF5030)

James,

It can either be deleted records or possibly a damaged index. On the CPYF command key a RRN (instead of the default of *START. That should read the file sequentially, bypassing the index.

Copying the damaged file with a CPYF, the copy ends up with 174 fewer records than the undamaged one.

But if I use an RPG program to scan forward through the damaged file from TOF until it hits a damaged record, the RRN in INFDS is 522564, and if I scan backward from EOF to a damaged record, the RRN in INFDS is 522604, a gap of only 40 RRNs

Anybody have any idea what the discrepancy could be?


(Oh, and incidentally, it turns out that the customer had a power failure.)
