NONDES : Nondescriptor Searches

Parameter Specify . . . Possible Values Default
NONDES whether to allow (YES) or disallow (NO) searches using nondescriptors in search buffers. YES | NO YES

By default, you can perform searches on Adabas fields that have not been defined as descriptors. However, nondescriptor searches carry significant overhead.

NONDES=NO prevents searches on nondescriptors. An attempt to search on a nondescriptor field produces response code 68.

Example:

Disallow searches using nondescriptors.

ADARUN PROG=ADANUC,NONDES=NO
