The Edit Recovery for Access Paths (EDTRCYAP) command shows a list of access path recovery times for the system and for auxiliary storage pools (ASP) that are currently active on the system. From this list, you can change target access path recovery times and view updated recovery status information. Additionally, the command will show up to 500 access paths with the largest estimated access path recovery time which are not eligible for system-managed access-path protection and why they are not eligible. Also, the command will show up to 500 access paths with the largest estimated access path recovery time which are currently being protected by system-managed access-path-protection.

The system uses no more than the specified amount of target access path recovery time when recovering access paths during an initial program load (IPL) or vary on of an independent ASP after an abnormal system end. Because the access path recovery time is a target, performance may range around the target.

The time taken to rebuild access paths exposed while running the Copy File (CPYF), the Reorganize Physical File Member (RGZPFM), or the Restore Object (RSTOBJ) commands is not considered in the target access path recovery time of access paths protected with this command.

You can use this command or the Change Recovery for Access Paths (CHGRCYAP) command to manage the protection of access paths that are not already protected through journaling.

For more information on using this command, see the "Journal management" topic in the iSeries Information Center at http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/infocenter.

This command has no parameters.

Restrictions:

• You must have job control (*JOBCTL) special authority to use this command.
• This command is shipped with public *EXCLUDE authority, and the QPGMR and QSYSOPR user profiles have private authorities to use this command.
• If the current access path recovery state is *OFF, the user must be in a restricted state to activate system-managed access-path protection by specifying a target access path recovery time value.
• If no user auxiliary storage pools (ASPs) exist on the system, an access path recovery time for ASP 1 cannot be specified. You must specify a system access path recovery time.
