The ADARUN control statement defines and starts the Adabas operating environment. The ADARUN control statement also starts Adabas utilities.
ADARUN:
loads the ADAIOR module, which performs database I/O and other functions that depend on the operating system;
interprets the ADARUN parameter statements, then loads and modifies the appropriate Adabas nucleus or utility modules according to the ADARUN parameter settings; and
transfers control to Adabas.
The ADARUN statement, normally a series of entries each specifying one or more ADARUN parameter settings, is specified in the DDCARD ( z/OS or BS2000) or z/VSE CARD data set. For more specific job information, refer to the appropriate location in this documentation.
