Field | Description |
---|---|
Code |
RABNs may be cached in Associator (option A) and/or Data Storage (option D) space. A separate operation is required for each type of caching. |
Memory Type |
The memory type can be extended memory (E), data space (D), hiperspace (H), virtual 64 backed by large pages (L), or virtual 64 (V). The choices available depend on the operating system configuration under which Adabas is running. Virtual 64 is only available for systems running z/OS version 1.2 or above on the appropriate hardware. Virtual 64 backed by large pages is only available for systems running z/OS Version 1.9 or above on the appropriate hardware. |
RABN Number From...To |
Specifying the start RABN (RABN Number From...) and the end RABN (RABN Number To...) defines a RABN range to be cached in the defined cache space. If only one RABN is to be cached, it is not necessary to specify an ending RABN number. |
Cache Space No |
A cache space number (CSN) is a unique number called the RABN Range ID that will be assigned to the new RABN range. Valid values are 0 through 65535. If the number specified is already in use, the new RABN range definition is ignored and an error message is displayed on both DDPRINT and the operator console. If no number is provided or zero is specified, a CSN allocated by the nucleus will be returned. Note: The settings for the cache spaces being defined correspond to those
specified by the ADARUN parameters The corresponding direct commands are and |
Selecting option M from the Global Cache Main Menu displays a menu of functions for maintaining cache spaces:

From this screen, global operations can be performed on all cache spaces defined for the database. The allowed functions are
D | Delete all cache spaces. Once deleted, spaces must be redefined using Main Menu function D or by restarting the Adabas nucleus with the relevant ADARUN parameters. |
M | Move all cache spaces to the memory type (E for extended; D for data space; H for hiperspace; L for virtual 64 backed by large pages; V for virtual 64) you specify on the Memory Type window that appears. |
S | Disable all cache spaces. |
E | Start cache operation for all cache spaces. |
The corresponding direct command is
These same functions can be performed on individual cache spaces using the Maintain Cache Spaces function (menu option O).
Selecting option O from the Global Cache Main Menu displays a list of cache spaces currently allocated for the database:

Note:
If you specify the cache space number (CSN) on the Global Cache Main
Menu along with function code O, the Cache Statistics screen for that CSN is
displayed (DI
) directly.
For each RABN range listed on the Maintain Cache Spaces screen, you can display and modify caching parameters by entering one of the following commands in the Select column:
Cmd | Action |
---|---|
MO |
Move the selected cache space to the memory type (E for extended; D for data space; H for hiperspace; L for virtual 64 backed by large pages; V for virtual 64) you specify on the Memory Type window that appears. |
DE |
Delete the selected cache space. Once deleted, the space must be redefined using the Main Menu function D or the relevant ADARUN parameters. |
DI |
Display the detailed cache space statistics. The information
provided is the same as that resulting from the
CSTAT operator command.
|
DS |
Disable the selected cache space. |
EN |
Start caching operation for the selected cache space. |
The other columns on the Maintain Cache Spaces display contain the following information:
Column | Description |
---|---|
No. | Cache space number (CSN). This is actually a unique RABN Range ID as there is no longer a direct correlation between cache spaces and RABN ranges. |
Memory Type | Caching type for each cache space: extended storage (EXT), data spaces (DS), hiperspaces (HS), virtual 64 backed by large pages (L64) or virtual 64 storage (V64). |
Cache Type | Database component being cached in the cache space: Associator (ASSO), Data Storage (DATA), Work part 2 (WRK2), or Work part 3 (WRK3). |
RABN Range | The starting (From...) and ending (To...) RABNs of the RABN range being cached in the cache space. |
Last Activity | The date and time the cache space was last accessed. |
Status | The current status of the cache space: disabled (DISA); unallocated (UNAL); or ALLC (allocated). |
Error Status | If an error condition has occurred, the cause of the error will be displayed in this field. |
Entering DI
in the Select column on the
Maintain Cache Spaces screen or selecting option O and specifying a cache
number on the Global Cache Main Menu displays the Cache Statistics screen for
an individual cache space:

The information displayed on this screen is the same as that displayed by the CSTAT operator command.
Note:
Values for Max. Cache used, Cache
Size, RABNs in Cache, and
RABNs/Cache Space represent bytes, but may be marked
with a K (1 kilobyte=1024 bytes), M (1 megabyte=1,048,576 bytes), or G (1
gigabyte=1,073,741,824 bytes) indicator when the size of the value requires
it.
