STOPAFTER Parameter

The STOPAFTER parameter is optional. It allows you to interrupt the reorganization process. By selecting a step name, you identify the last step to be completed before processing stops. Concepts explains the function of each step.

              ANALYSIS
              OPTALLOC

              MATCH
              IIXSDBK
              UPDLINK

STOPAFTER=

This option indicates that a STOPAFTER option follows. You select the reorganization step to be completed before processing stops. Concepts explains the function of each step. The default is EOR.

Note: Once execution begins, an alternative to STOPAFTER is available.You can enter a Console Communication Command at the operator console to request a halt in execution after the current step is completed. You must have specified the DSPLYINT parameter in the current run.

CURRENT

Stop execution after the current logical step in the reorganization sequence.

ANALYSIS

Stop execution after the Analysis (ANALYSIS) step has been completed.

OPTALLOC

Stop execution after the Optimum Allocation Pointer Extract (OPTALLOC) step has been completed.

PRIALLOC

Stop execution after the Primary Allocation (PRIALLOC) step has been completed.

SECALLOC

Stop execution after the Secondary Allocation (SECALLOC) step has been completed.

MATCH

Stop execution after the Match (MATCH) step has been completed.

IIXDBK

Stop execution after the IIX sorted db key (IIXSDBK) step.

UPDLINK

Stop execution after the Update Set Linkage (UPDLINK) step has been completed.

STORE

EOR
