Re: RRN Reletive record number question

Holger,
Generally most people do not rely upon RRN and follow your advice. There
are a few legacy applications which create simple log files which do not
record a timestamp or any form of sequencing and rely upon arrival
sequence. As much as we'd like to convince people to modify the
applications some just have other priorities and/or are loathe to make any
modifications to canned software.

do not rely on RRN or their order at all.
Do rely on unique keys and time stamps if ordering is needed.

Subject RRN Reletive record number question

I know the RRN can change when running a reorg, as it will reuse deleted

records etc... My question is - would the order of the RRN every change
for a record.

This would allow a program to keep the RRN order to be always reliable.
