Verify a DATABASE Structure

Use the VERIFY function to confirm that the definition of a DATABASE structure is valid and that the structure can be successfully cataloged to the CA Datacom/DB Directory (CXX). You can also use the VERIFY function after performing modifications to a structure.

How It Works

When you request the VERIFY function, CA Datacom Datadictionary checks for invalid or unacceptable data, such as duplicate names or invalid attribute-values. At the table level, CA Datacom Datadictionary reestablishes the length of the compound fields and the offsets of the fields in the table. It also reestablishes the length and offsets of the elements and keys.

If errors are found, you receive a panel listing the error codes, occurrences and a brief description of each error. If no errors are detected, you receive a message that the VERIFY was successful.

For more information and the list of the data checks performed by the VERIFY function. see the CA Datacom Datadictionary User Guide.
