Nucleus File Status

From the Resource Utilization menu, the Nucleus file status (option N) has been added and is the equivalent of the DNFV operator command.

In an Adabas cluster environment, the file may be locked for exclusive use by another cluster nucleus. If this is the case and the file is in the nucleus file status table, the Locking NucID column for the file shows the ID of the nucleus that has exclusive control.

The Access count / Update count fields display the number of access or update users, respectively, that refer to the specified file in their user queue elements (UQEs). These users either have specified the file in an OP command with R-option or are using the file in an as yet incomplete transaction.

A State field indicates when the file is used for access only or for access and update. The State field indicates to what extent a nucleus can use a file on its own. If the requested use exceeds the given state, the nucleus must first communicate with the other nuclei in the cluster in order to upgrade the state.

Nucleus Status Flags

From the Resource Utilization menu, a second screen has been added to the System status (option S), which displays I/O counts for the ASSO, DATA, WORK, and PLOG data sets; remote and local call distribution; and other current session status information.

The CLUFREEUSER command is only valid in cluster environments. It can be issued against the local nucleus only or, with the Global option, against all active and inactive nuclei in the cluster.

The command is used to delete leftover user table elements (UTEs) in common storage that are no longer associated with user queue elements (UQEs) in a nucleus where

TNA is a decimal number specifying the timeout value in seconds. UTEs that are not used during the time specified may be deleted if other conditions are fulfilled. If TNA is not specified, UTEs may be deleted without regard to their recent use.
UID is a character string or hexadecimal byte string as follows:
cccccccc where the argument is 1-8 letters, digits, or embedded '-' signs without surrounding apostrophes.
'cccccccc' where the argument is 1-8 characters with surrounding apostrophes.
X'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' where the argument is an even number of 2-16 hexadecimal digits enclosed by X' '.
A character string must be enclosed in apostrophes if it contains characters other than letter, digits, or embedded '-' signs. If a specified character string is less than 8 characters long, it is implicitly padded with blanks. If a specified hexadecimal string is shorter than 16 hexadecimal digits, it is implicitly padded with binary zeros.
If the last 8 bytes of a user's 28-byte communication ID match a specific user ID or user ID prefix, that user's UTE may be deleted if other conditions are fulfilled.
If UID not specified, UTEs may be deleted regardless of their user IDs.
FORCE Delete leftover UTEs even if the users are due a response code 9, subcode 20. If FORCE is not specified, such UTEs are not deleted. Before using the FORCE parameter, ensure that the users owning the UTEs to be deleted will not expect any of their transactions to remain open. Specify FORCE on this screen by marking the Force field with any character.
GLOBAL Delete leftover UTEs throughout the Adabas cluster if they are no longer associated with UQEs and are eligible according to the other specified parameters. Additionally and subject to the other rules, delete leftover UTEs if their assigned nuclei have terminated since their last use. If GLOBAL is not specified, only UTEs assigned to the local nucleus and used since the nucleus start are eligible for deletion. Specify GLOBAL on this screen by marking the Global field with any character.
