FORCE-STOP-DAB-CACHING Force release of existing cache area

Domain:

SYSTEM-TUNING

Privileges:

TSOS

Function

The command is intended for use only in exceptional circumstances (such as disk defects).

The /FORCE-STOP-DAB-CACHING command enables systems support to force DAB cache areas to be released without writing the data in the cache to disk. All storage areas allocated when the cache area was set up are released, and any data not yet saved to disk is lost. The disk data may subsequently be in an inconsistent state.

Message NDB0045 is output prior to command execution as a warning, indicating which files or volumes may be destroyed after command execution. This is followed by message NDB0046, requesting explicit confirmation of the action before it is actually carried out.

Format
