The following services are available, and can be invoked using the appropriate option code.
Code | Service | Provides communication facilities for the... |
---|---|---|
1 | Asynchronous Buffer Services | selected active Adabas Fastpath buffer. |
2 | Database Component Services | database(s) for which Adabas Fastpath has been installed. |

Selecting option code 1
from the Special
Services menu or entering the command 5.1 on any command line displays the following
window:

Asynchronous Buffer Services communicates with the buffer indicated at the top of the window. If the job is connected to a buffer, that buffer is shown when the window opens. You can override the default buffer by changing the database number to the one defined for the required buffer. All actions are a request to the Asynchronous Buffer Manager (AFPABM) to perform the function.
Option Code | Description |
---|---|
R: Restart | Stop the buffer in an orderly fashion, and then restart it again. Both primary and alternate configuration files (if used) must be available for this operation. |
S: Stop | Terminate the buffer in an orderly fashion. Both primary and alternate configuration files (if used) must be available for this operation. |
N: Newcopy | Reload the Adabas Fastpath modules for the buffer and every other component connected to the buffer. AFPABM also performs a buffer restart. Both primary and alternate configuration files (if used) must be available for this operation. |
P: Snap | Produce a snap dump of the buffer. |
L: Log | Write a statistical log to the Adabas Fastpath configuration file. |
I: ABM Information | Display general diagnostic information for the Adabas Fastpath buffer job. |
Z: ZAP Information | Display the numbers of ZAPs that have been applied to the Adabas Fastpath nucleus being used by the Adabas Fastpath buffer job. |

Linker Stub | Load address of the Adabas Fastpath module that was linked with the Adabas link routine. |
AFPKRN / AFPDEP / AFPCFG | Load addresses of the Adabas Fastpath modules. A zero address indicates that the module could not be found. |
Anchor | Address of the Adabas Fastpath buffer pool, if it could be located. This address is usually zero if connection could not be made. |
Session | Address of the job area (BSA) within the Adabas Fastpath buffer. |
Initialization Error | Error code relating to job initialization. Code 10 indicates that a parameter was corrected by the system and should be ignored. Other codes are related to errors detected when reading the Adabas Fastpath configuration file. RC shows the Adabas response code received. |
The Local Job Statistics screen can be invoked by selecting option code
