RE: Re-Organize File

["Nicolay, Paul" <paul_nicolay@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

You won't get an answer to that... not even when you specify the Model of
iSeries you have, the amount of internal memory, the type of disks, the
protection they have, how the fragmentation of the PF looks like.... and
many more things.

If you've disk space enough you could maybe use CPYF COMPRESS(*YES), and
afterwards set the logicals to rebuild, clear the original file and copy the
data back.  At least you can do the process in different phases.

Kind regards,
Paul

Hi *ALL

Given the following: I have a file that has Total records
= 75 million and Total deleted records = 50 million and
there are 25 logicals attached and total record length is
442.

How long would RGZPFM take to run over this file?
