The ACCHECK function checks the address converter of a specified database file. In addition, it automatically checks the secondary address converter if the file contains spanned records.
This document covers the following topics:
The file to be checked. A file number is required the first time you execute ADAICK.
If FILE is omitted on subsequent executions, the last file used by ADAICK is checked.
When starting, ADAICK normally performs a utility open call to the nucleus to assure that no blocks of the affected file or files are still in the nucleus buffer pool. However, this also locks the file for other users. Specifying NOOPEN prevents ADAICK from issuing the open call.
When a parameter error or a functional error occurs while this utility function is running, the utility ordinarily prints an error message and terminates with user abend 34 (with a dump) or user abend 35 (without a dump). If NOUSERABEND is specified, the utility will not abend after printing the error message. Instead, the message "utility TERMINATED DUE TO ERROR CONDITION" is displayed and the utility terminates with condition code 20.
Note:
When NOUSERABEND is specified, we recommend that it be specified
as the first parameter of the utility function (before all other parameters).
This is necessary to ensure that its parameter error processing occurs
properly.
The following sample of the output produced from an ADAICK ACCHECK run is for an Adabas 8 database that makes use of spanned records, and thus includes a secondary address converter.
