Specify the frequency of writing the access path (FRCACCPTH) parameter

You can specify the frequency of writing the access path with the force access path (FRCACCPTH) parameter. The FRCACCPTH parameter controls when an access path is written to auxiliary storage.

FRCACCPTH (*YES) forces the access path to auxiliary storage whenever the access path is changed. This reduces the chance that the access path needs to be rebuilt if the system fails.

FRCACCPTH parameter tips

Specifying FRCACCPTH(*YES) can degrade performance when changes occur to the access path. An alternative to forcing the access path is journaling the access path.
