COMM (Communicate with Multi-User Facility) › COMM CLRPXX (Clear Statistics and Diagnostics Area (PXX))

COMM CLRPXX (Clear Statistics and Diagnostics Area (PXX))

The COMM CLRPXX option clears the Statistics and Diagnostics Area (PXX) of all data. This option has the same effect as disabling and enabling the Multi-User Facility. That is, CA Datacom/DB begins to write data to logical block one, and all data previously in the Statistics and Diagnostics Area (PXX) is lost.

Note: Summary statistics are maintained in the Multi-User Facility and are not cleared nor reset in memory.

The COMM CLRPXX function communicates with one Multi-User Facility. Be aware of the following:

• Ensure that DBUTLTY is communicating with the desired Multi-User Facility by executing DBUTLTY with the same System Identifier module (DBSIDPR) that is being used by the Multi-User Facility, and
• Ensure proper load library concatenation by keeping the System Identifier modules (DBSIDPR) in separate load libraries.

When using a console command, these steps are unnecessary.
