REMOVE: Remove the Recovery Aid

ADARAI REMOVE is functionally the same as the old ADARAI NORAI function; either REMOVE or NORAI can be specified.

Note:
ADARAI REMOVE/NORAI must be executed with the database inactive.

The ADARAI REMOVE function disables recovery logging by updating the Associator GCBs to indicate that recovery logging (that is, the Recovery Aid) is no longer active in the database, and that information will no longer be recorded in the recover log (RLOG).

Existing RLOG information is maintained and available for listing or recovery operation following REMOVE, up until the next PREPARE operation is performed. Once the ADARAI PREPARE function is executed, all existing RLOG data is lost.

To restart recovery logging after using the REMOVE function, execute the ADARAI PREPARE function followed by an ADASAV SAVE/RESTORE database, RESTORE GCB, and/or SAVE DELTA/RESTORE DELTA (database) function to start a new generation. See the discussion of ADARAI PREPARE for information about preparing the RLOG.


Example
