Parameters › FIX Statement

FIX Statement

The FIX statement indicates the types of fix processing for CA IDMS/DB Audit to simulate or perform.

Simulated fixing allows you to examine the projected results on the Integrity Analysis Report without actually updating the database.

FIX options specify which types of errors to correct: CALC or set errors, integrated index orphans, pointer errors, or page header and footer errors. You can also use the FIX statement to physically delete logically deleted records (LDELs).

You can apply corrections either to errors found in a previous audit or to errors found in the current audit. You can specify the FIX statement without an AUDIT statement only if your JCL specifies extract files that were created during a previous run of the audit phase. If CA IDMS/DB Audit is to fix integrated index orphans that were detected in a previous run of AUDIT, you must also include the index extract file in your JCL.

You cannot specify more than one FIX statement for each run of CA IDMS/DB Audit.
