|
|
<div><p>The COMPRESS(*NO) parameter allows the system to copy more quickly
|
|
because records are transferred in blocks, but this is <em>not always</em> true.
|
|
Typically, the COMPRESS(*NO) function does not significantly affect performance.</p>
|
|
<div class="p"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Before you specify the COMPRESS(*NO) parameter, be aware
|
|
that when you use the COMPRESS(*NO) parameter, the system takes the following
|
|
actions:<ul><li>Before the records are copied, the system invalidates any key access paths
|
|
that use the to-file member.</li>
|
|
<li>After the copy operation is complete, the system rebuilds
|
|
the access paths.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
The runtime and resource that are required to rebuild the keyed access
|
|
paths might outweigh the performance benefit that is gained by copying deleted
|
|
records.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
|
|
<p>If you do not specify the COMPRESS(*NO) parameter, the system might still
|
|
use the internal functions to perform the copy, but the choice of how the
|
|
copy is performed is based on the number of records in the from-file and to-file
|
|
members before the copy, and the number of keyed access paths over the to-file
|
|
member.</p>
|
|
<p>If you specify the MBROPT(*REPLACE) parameter, all keyed access paths over
|
|
the to-file member must be invalidated and rebuilt, so specifying COMPRESS(*NO)
|
|
does not cause any additional overhead for rebuilding access paths.</p>
|
|
<p>If the from-file is a keyed physical file and neither a FROMRCD nor TORCD
|
|
relative record number value is specified on the copy commands to force the
|
|
file to be processed in arrival sequence, COMPRESS(*NO) has no meaning because
|
|
a keyed access path never contains any deleted records.</p>
