Explanation
This is an informational message to report the copy statistics. This message is issued by the following utilities:
- COPY
- LOAD, if a full image copy has been requested during a table space load
- REORG, if a full image copy has been requested during a table space reorganization
The statistics apply to pages that are included in the scope of the COPY request: a full table space, a full index space (DSNUM(ALL)), or a partition (DSNUM(integer)). All of the pages in the table space, index space, or partition can be copied (FULL(YES)), or only the changed pages can be copied (FULL(NO)).
- csect-name
- The name of the control section that issued the message.
- object-type
- The type of object.
- object-qualifier.object-name
- The name of the object, as a qualified name.
- total-pages
- The number of pages written out. The number of pages written includes valid instances where pages are written more than once, or for incremental copies, pages written which have not changed since the last copy was taken. A slight discrepancy between this value and the actual number of pages is possible and is considered normal.
- free-space
- The average percentage of free space within the copied pages,
in the format nn.nn. This value indicates the amount
of change activity that can occur without significant impairment of
reference performance.
This value is 0 for sequential copies made from a FlashCopy®.
- changed-pages
- The percentage of changed pages, to two decimal places (nn.nn or
100.00). This value indicates the amount of change activity that occurred
since the last image copy or reorganization. The percentage of changed
pages is obtained by dividing the number of changed pages by the number
of pages in the object. Preformatted pages consisting of all zeros
are included in the count of pages scanned. Because these preformatted
pages are not copied to the output data set, the number of pages scanned
is usually larger than the number of pages copied.
When this message is issued for image copies produced during LOAD or REORG, this percentage will always be reported as 100.00 (100%), because the utility is resetting and reformatting the entire table space.
This value is 0 for sequential copies made from a FlashCopy.
- hh:mm:ss
- The elapsed time, shown as the number of hours, minutes, and seconds.
System action
The COPY, LOAD or REORG utility continues processing. Message DSNU428I is issued when the copy processing is complete.
User response
No action is required.
You can use this information to help you make decisions about your strategies, such as:
- Use of REORG or RUNSTATS
- Your overall recovery strategy, including decisions about using incremental copies
- Storage allocation
