Table 51: Statements for BTRANS24
You must specify precisely one of the two statements CHECK-DATABASE or TRANSFORM-DATABASE. If you specify more than one correctly formulated statement then the last statement issued is effective.
CHECK-DATABASE (start check run)
You use the CHECK-DATABASE statement to start an explicit check run. The check run must be performed under the user ID of the database. It can be performed in parallel with the DBH session. The realms are opened for read access only.
CHECK-DATABASE |
DATABASE-NAME=<dbname> |
DATABASE-NAME=<dbname>
Name of the database.
CHECK-DATABASE assesses the prerequisites for database transformation and outputs the corresponding messages. Please note that this assessment may become invalid due to changes that only take effect in the database after the check has been completed.
TRANSFORM-DATABASE (transform the database)
This statement starts database transformation. Transformation must be performed under the user ID.
TRANSFORM-DATABASE |
DATABASE-NAME=<dbname> |
DATABASE-NAME=<dbname>
Name of the database.
The realms are opened for modification only. An implicit check run is performed first. If this reveals that the conditions for transformation are not fulfilled then transformation is aborted. Up to this point, no changes are made to the database which therefore remains consistent.
END (terminate statement input)
You use the END statement to terminate statement input. Execution is then started.
END |
This statement has no operands.
