This document covers the following topics:
The file to be checked. A file number is required the first time you execute ADAICK.
If FILE is omitted on subsequent executions, the last file used by ADAICK is checked.
When starting, ADAICK normally performs a utility open call to the nucleus to assure that no blocks of the affected file or files are still in the nucleus buffer pool. However, this also locks the file for other users. Specifying NOOPEN prevents ADAICK from issuing the open call.
When an error is encountered while the function is running, the utility prints an error message and terminates with user abend 34 (with a dump) or user abend 35 (without a dump).
If NOUSERABEND is specified, the utility will not abend after printing the error message. Instead, the message "utility TERMINATED DUE TO ERROR CONDITION" is displayed and the utility terminates with condition code 20.
