Resolving The Problem
Retrieve Directory Information is used to collect attributes for directories and files in the Integrated File System.
|
o | The collected information is stored in database files that are named using the information file prefix specified by the INFFILEPFX parameter in the library specified by the INFLIB parameter. Note: QTEMP cannot be used in the INFLIB parameter. This is not a limitation of the RTVDIRINF command; it is a limitation of SQL which the command uses to build and populate the database files produced by the command. |
| o | To obtain the most accurate results, this command should be run at a time when there is very little activity for files in the specified directory. |
| o | Three tables are created as a result of the RTVDIRINF command: Table 1: Stores object attributes Table 2: Stores directories Table 3: Used to determine which files were used to store object attributes |
| o | The file names and library can be found in the joblog of RTVDIRINF in message ID CPI1E30: o Default library is QUSRSYS o Default file name starts with QAEZ* |
PRTDIRINF
| o | The Print Directory Information command is used to print directory information for objects in the Integrated File System that was collected by the RTVDIRINF command. |
| o | A spooled file with file name QPEZDIR is created in the spooled queue associated with the job using this command. |
Note: InfoCenter is the best source for documentation on the RTVDIRINF and PRTDIRINF commands: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/
Examples
| 1. | RTVDIRINF DIR('/fixes') Table QAEZD0013D in QUSRSYS created but could not be journaled. Table QAEZD0013O in QUSRSYS created but could not be journaled.
Directory information was successfully retrieved. |
| 2. | RTVDIRINF DIR('/fixes') INFFILEPFX(TST) INFLIB(Mylib) Table TSTD in Mylib created but could not be journaled. Table TSTO in Mylib created but could not be journaled.
Directory information was successfully retrieved. |
