Is the physical file in arrival sequence ( does it have an access path )? If the physical file is in arrival sequence, my experience is that A is much faster. If not, just RGZPFM. It's the access path building that takes the time. Option B would require maintenance of the access path as the copy is happening, if the physical is not arrival sequence. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rpg400-l@midrange.com [mailto:owner-rpg400-l@midrange.com]On Behalf Of Yuriy_Simonoff@WHJI.COM Sent: Monday, June 05, 2000 5:02 PM To: RPG400-L@midrange.com Subject: File reorganization I've got to reorg some files on the system. What is faster: A. Reorganize files as: - remove logical's - reorg files - add logicals or B. Copy data out to temp file, followed by copying data back Files are from 5,000,000 to 43,000,000 records and have logical files based on them.
