<h1 class="topictitle1">Save-while-active restrictions</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>The following restrictions apply to all of the commands which provide the
|
||
|
save-while-active function. </p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>The save-while-active function is only available on the commands listed
|
||
|
in Save-while-active function.</li>
|
||
|
<li>You cannot use the save-while-active function in the following situations:
|
||
|
<ul><li>When all subsystems have ended. If you have ended all subsystems, the
|
||
|
save operation is the only user job that is active. It must finish before
|
||
|
you can restart your subsystems and applications. The following save operations
|
||
|
require that you end all subsystems. Therefore, you cannot use the save-while-active
|
||
|
function with these operations: <ul><li>Saving the system library</li>
|
||
|
<li>Saving all libraries</li>
|
||
|
<li>Saving the entire system</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
<li>When freeing or deleting storage during a save operation. If specifying
|
||
|
STG(*FREE) or STG(*DELETE) on a save command, or CHKFORMRK(*YES) on the SAVDLO
|
||
|
command, you cannot use the save-while-active function.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
<li>You should not use the save-while-active function when the server is very
|
||
|
busy or when there is very little disk storage available. Before you save
|
||
|
large amounts of data (such as all user libraries), you should initially use
|
||
|
the save-while-active function on a limited amount of data. Using the save-while-active
|
||
|
feature on a limited amount of data will help you determine its impact on
|
||
|
your server's performance and storage.</li>
|
||
|
<li>You should not load, apply, or remove program temporary fixes (PTF)s when
|
||
|
running a save-while-active operation.</li>
|
||
|
<li>You must issue separate save commands to use the save-while-active function
|
||
|
for objects in libraries, document library objects, and objects in directories.
|
||
|
If you need to synchronize objects you are saving with different commands,
|
||
|
first end your applications until all of the objects have reached a checkpoint.
|
||
|
<ul><li>If you have only one media device, each command must finish before the
|
||
|
next can start. If you use the save-while-active function to reduce your save-outage
|
||
|
time, save folders and directories first. Save libraries last. Saving the
|
||
|
objects in this order will probably provide the greatest reduction in the
|
||
|
save-outage time.</li>
|
||
|
<li>If you have multiple media devices, and you use the save-while-active
|
||
|
function to reduce your save-outage time, save libraries, folders, and directories
|
||
|
concurrently. This will probably provide the greatest reduction in you save-outage
|
||
|
time.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
<li>You cannot save objects that you create after the save operation begins.</li>
|
||
|
<li>You cannot save objects that other jobs are using during checkpoint processing. </li>
|
||
|
<li>Do not use System Service Tools (SST) functions for objects you are currently
|
||
|
saving by a save-while-active operation.</li>

||
|

|

|
<div><p>Consider the following considerations when you use the save-while-active
|
||
|
function to save document library objects. </p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>Full synchronization is not available. Only system-defined synchronization
|
||
|
is available.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Checkpoint notification is not available. This means that you cannot determine
|
||
|
when it would be safe to restart your applications that use document library
|
||
|
objects. When saving document library objects, the benefit of the save-while-active
|
||
|
function is that objects are allocated for a shorter time than with normal
|
||
|
save operations.</li>
|
||
|
<li>You may cannot save documents during save-while-active processing if a
|
||
|
reclaim operation (RCLDLO command) is running.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Folders may not be saved during save-while-active processing if a reorganize
|
||
|
operation (RGZDLO command) or a reclaim operation (RCLDLO command) is running.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Some applications use application programming interfaces (APIs) or shared
|
||
|
folders to work with a document like a personal computer. When they update
|
||
|
document data, they save the updates to a temporary file. The application
|
||
|
does not permanently write changes to the document until the application session
|
||
|
ends. Therefore these applications can update a document while a save-while-active
|
||
|
operation is running. <p>Other applications update documents directly as
|
||
|
the application receives data. For example, some spreadsheet applications
|
||
|
and image applications work this way. If this type of application updates
|
||
|
a document while a save-while-active operation is running, the application
|
||
|
does not save document. The job log receives Diagnostic messages CPF8A80:<span class="uicontrol">Document
|
||
|
in use</span> and CPF90AC:<span class="uicontrol">Document not saved</span>
|
||
|
to indicate that the application did not save the object because the object
|
||
|
was in use.</p>
