Reclaim the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and user-defined file systems

Reclaiming the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and user-defined file systems can be accomplished using the Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) and Reclaim Storage (RCLSTG) commands.

By using the RCLLNK and RCLSTG commands, you can perform the following tasks:

• Correct object user profile problems
• Correct user-defined file system problems
• Correct internal object problems
• Remove invalid object links
• Handle damaged objects
• Create missing system objects
• Correct internal file system problems (RCLSTG only)
• Find lost objects (RCLSTG only)

• Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) and Reclaim Storage (RCLSTG) commands comparison
  You can use both the Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) and Reclaim Storage (RCLSTG) commands to correct problems in the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and user-defined file systems.
• Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) command
  The Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) command identifies and repairs damaged objects in the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and mounted user-defined file systems without requiring the system to be in a restricted state. This allows you to correct problems in these file systems without sacrificing productivity.
• Recreate integrated file system provided objects
  This table shows the objects provided by the integrated file system that the Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) command re-creates if they do not exist. These objects are normally created during the initial program load (IPL). You can also re-create some of these objects, if necessary, using the Reclaim Storage (RCLSTG) command.
• Examples: Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) command
  These examples describe situations in which the Reclaim Object Links (RCLLNK) command can be used to reclaim objects in the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and mounted user-defined file systems.
