CXX Upgrade › New Version 12 Database Format › Change One or More Databases from FORMAT 1 to FORMAT 2

Change One or More Databases from FORMAT 1 to FORMAT 2

If you have no plans to fallback to r11, use the DBUTLTY function CXXMAINT OPTION=FORMAT0102 (optional DBID=value). For normal users, this is done once with the keyword set as DBID=1-5000. At this point, the disabled Version 12 features relating to the CXX become available.

For testing, the function can be used with individual databases or ranges of databases. For each DBID selected, the database format is set to FORMAT 2. If the index is currently set as loaded, each key defined is also set to loaded and if the index is set to not loaded, each key defined is set to not loaded.
