File Adjust Function - PACADJST

The PAC file adjust function allows the PAC administrator to reset/adjust an internal record on the PAC system files (ACF system file and PCF system file) after PAC is installed and initialized. This ensures the integrity of the PAC system.

After renumbering the ACF and/or PCF system files using the Adabas ADADBS utility or Adabas Basic Services, and modifying the NTFILE definitions in your Natural nuclei to reflect the new physical file numbers of the changed ACF and/or PCF system files, use the following procedure:

  1. Log on to the library SYSPAC using the updated Natural nucleus.

    Note:
    The LFILE dynamic parameter may be used temporarily.

  2. At the NEXT prompt, enter the command PACADJST to invoke the File Adjust Function.

When a new ACF or PCF system file is specified, PAC verifies each file individually. If the values are not correct, an appropriate message is displayed and processing is terminated. If the values are correct, the results are displayed in a report shown in the following example: 

     The PAC Control Status has been adjusted

     Application Control File  has been adjusted
     Predict Control File   has been adjusted

     Adjustment of Metadata follows ......

Selecting Archive Status ARCHIVE
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... ADJ-APPL
Selecting Control Status CONTROL
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... ADJ-APPL
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... COMMON
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... ORD-EXAM
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... PREDICT
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... ADJUST
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... ADJ-APPL
Adjusting Application-Status Link for Application ... ORD-EXAM *** 
   *** Processing has now successfully completed ***

The report displays the results of the PAC verification as follows:

  • If all renumbered files are consistent with the installation files, the appropriate message is displayed for each PAC file, for example: "... File has been adjusted".

  • Adjustment of metadata: When the file renumbering is completed, PAC automatically updates application status links with the new file numbers of the ACF and PCF system files.

  • When the adjust function is completed, the message "Processing has now successfully completed" is displayed.

Access the PAC Administrator Functions

Access the PAC administrator functions from the NEXT prompt on the Natural system library screen by entering

  • SYSPAC; then ADMIN; or

  • SYSPACA; then MENU.

Note:
For Natural Security reasons, the menu program in SYSPACA logs you on to SYSPAC, checks whether you are allowed to use SYSPACA, and then executes ADMIN.

The Administrator Functions menu is displayed providing the following functions to the authorized PAC administrator:
