This utility is a multi-function utility. For more information about single- and multi-function utilities, see Adabas Basics, Using Utilities in the Adabas documentation.

## Procedure Flow

Data Set | Environment Variable/ Logical Name | Storage Medium | Additional Information
--- | --- | --- | ---
Associator | ASSOx | Disk |
Data storage | DATAx | Disk |
Sort storage | SORTx | Disk |
Control statements | stdin |  | Utilities Manual
ADAPRI output | stdout |  |
Temporary storage | TEMPx | Disk |
Work storage | WORK1 | Disk |

Assignments to the ASSO container files are required in order to be able to process the DATA or WORK container files.

## Checkpoints

The utility writes no checkpoints.

## Control Parameters

The following control parameters are available:

    DATASET = keyword

    DBID = number

    RABN = number [- number]

### DATASET

    DATASET = keyword

This parameter specifies the part of the database to be dumped. Valid keywords are:

Keyword | Meaning
--- | ---
ASSO | Associator
DATA | Data Storage
SORT | Sort Area
TEMP | Temporary Area
WORK | Work Area

#### Example

    adapri: dataset = asso, rabn = 123 - 321

The Associator is dumped from RABN 123 to RABN 321

### DBID

    DBID = number

This parameter selects the database to be used.

This parameter is not required if DATASET = TEMP or SORT.

### RABN

    RABN = number [- number]

This parameter specifies one RABN or a range of RABNs to be dumped.

#### Examples

    adapri: dbid = 1, dataset = data, rabn = 123

DATA RABN 123 of database 1 is to be dumped.

    adapri: dataset = sort, rabn = 123 - 129

The RABNs from 123 to 129 on the data set SORT are to be dumped.
