Database Report

Options on the Database Report menu provide information only: none of the displayed information can be changed. However, direct commands can be entered on this menu to invoke other Basic Services functions for making changes.

Database Report functions provide both general and specific information in either table or report format. They correspond to selected functions of the Adabas ADAREP utility.

Options allow you to view database-level general information and tables of database files, files whose extents are at or near the allowable maximum, file-specific information for any file, physical database distribution by volume/serial number (VOLSER), and available space that is not currently being used. Additional displays are available using direct commands.
