SINDEXSUF=YES is effective if all of the following conditions are met:
  • DBRC is inactive.
  • DYNALLOC=(xxx,xxx,NO) is specified.
  • INDEXBLD=YES,NEW is specified.
If SINDEXSUF=YES is specified, it is assumed that each shadow secondary index has the data set name of the original index plus a suffix, and the Smart Reorg utility produces IDCAMS commands for renaming the shadow index to the original name. If SINDEXSUF=NO is specified, the Smart Reorg utility cannot know the name of the original index under the preceding conditions; therefore, the Smart Reorg utility does not produce IDCAMS commands for renaming the shadow index to the original name.
Tip: You can change the default value of this control statement by creating an Installation Default Option Table (HPSCOPTI). For more information, see Setting installation default options.
