Fragmented Record Errors

CA IDMS/DB Audit finds any instance of a fragmented (variable length) record whose fragments could not be properly assembled. For example, in Figure 2.30, the subject record Biology is variable length and should consist of the root portion and one fragment. The pointer within the root portion of the record, however, points to an SR4 record (fragment) that does not exist. CA IDMS/DB Audit cannot fix errors of this type.
