SARDBASE Utility

In the SARDBASE utility:

• The VERIFY control statement verifies and corrects the database (including broken pointer chains).
• The COPY control statement copies a database.
• The UNLOAD control statement unloads a database to tape.
• The LOAD control statement reloads a database from tape.
• The MERGE control statement merges one or more databases. (This requires the Expanded Retention Option.)
• The RESTORE control statement restores the database master index from tape (and optionally copies SYSOUT data from the old database).
