ADAULD Output Processing

ADAULD unloads the records in the specified sequence. The unloaded records are written to one or both of two sequential data sets: DDOUT1 and DDOUT2. Writing to these output data sets is controlled by user exit 9.

The records output are identical in format to the output produced by the ADACMP utility unless the MODE=SHORT option is used, in which case the descriptor entries required for the normal index and upper index are omitted and the descriptor information is removed from the Adabas FDT. The ISN of the record immediately precedes the compressed data record, and is provided as a four-byte binary number.

Specifying the DDISN parameter instructs ADAULD to write the list of unloaded ISNs to a sequential output file DDISN. Only one DDISN file is created, containing the superset of ISNs written to either or both of DDOUT1 and DDOUT2. ISNs that are rejected by user exit 9 are not written to DDISN.

DDISN is structured so that it can be used as input to ADALOD UPDATE for the purpose of deleting the unloaded records.

The number of ISNs written to DDISN is displayed in the ADAULD statistics on the DDDRUCK utility protocol:

Number of Output Data Sets        =  1          
Number of Requested Records       =  16777215   
STARTISN                          =  0

Unload Sequence                   =  PHYS SEQ   

Number of Records Read            =         307 
Number of Records Written         =         307 
Number of Record Segments Read    =         777 
Number of Record Segments Written =         777 
Records Written to DDOUT1         =         307 
Records Written to DDOUT2         =           0 
Records Rejected by USEREXIT-9    =           0 
Number of ISNS Written to DDISN   =         307 

If the DDISN parameter is specified, the number of ISNs written to DDISN should always be the number of records read minus the number of records rejected by user exit 9.

The ISNs on the DDISN file are ISNs as visible to applications; that is, the internal ISN as stored in a Data Storage record plus MINISN-1.
