I know you are all going to think I am nuts but this really happened.
We have a model 520 using v5r4
on friday
deleted a bunch of records from a file using the delete opcode in an rpg
program.
the delete code was used on a logical file
about 1.5 million out of 7 million
as part of our weekend process I -
on saturday
ran a job from the system console to
put the system in a restricted state
save all/nonsys
ipl
on sunday
restore the file and its logicals from tape to a test library
monday
the deleted records were not in the file in the restored test library,
but they were active again in the production library.
no committment control was used anywhere
using dsppfm I could see the there were deleted records in the file in
the test library based on the -record- heading at the top of the screen.
On monday I re-restored the data from the tape and it was still the same.
I looked at the tape display, and the joblogs to verify that all happened
as above.
Only different thing about us that I can think of is we have geographic
mirroring active on our system.
Anyone ever heard of anything like this?
Original file with records back in it. records 10 and 11 have reappeared.
