Option C lists checkpoints currently in the checkpoint file.

The result can be either a basic or an extended list, depending on the setting of the "External CP-list" field, which can be used to override the CPEXLIST operating control parameter.

You can start the list of checkpoints on a particular day by entering the date in the Date field in exactly the format shown.

You can specify the database for which the checkpoint list is to be written.

You can restrict the list to a particular type of checkpoint by changing the ALL designation in the Checkpoint Type field to one of the following:

SYNC nucleus initialization
SYNF user open EXF
SYNP utility without NUC
SYNS ADARES
SYNV volume ID change
SYNX utility
SYN1 ADASAV DB begin
SYN2 ADASAV DB begin
SYN4 ADASAV file begin
SYN5 ADASAV file begin

For more information about checkpoint types, see ADAREP in the Adabas Utilities documentation .
