<h1 class="topictitle1">Save access paths</h1>
<div><p>When you restore a database file, but you did not save the access path
to the database, the server rebuilds the access path. You can significantly
reduce the amount of time it takes you to recover if you save the access paths.
However, the process that saves access paths increases the time for the save
operation and the amount of media that you use.</p>
<p>To save access paths that are owned by logical files, specify ACCPTH(*YES)
on the SAVCHGOBJ, SAVLIB, and SAVOBJ commands when you save the physical files.
The server saves access paths when you save the physical file because the
physical file contains the data that is associated with the access path. When
you save the logical file, you are saving only the description of the logical
file.</p>
<p>When a save command (SAVLIB, SAVOBJ, SAVCHGOBJ, SAVRSTLIB, SAVRSTOBJ, or
SAVRSTCHG) is performed, the save access paths parameter value is determined
by the QSAVACCPTH system value when ACCPTH(*SYSVAL) is specified. When ACCPTH(*YES)
or ACCPTH(*NO) is specified, this system value is ignored. If access paths
are to be saved, the process that saves access paths increases the time for
the save operation and the amount of media that you use. However, by having
the access paths saved, you significantly reduce the amount of time it takes
to recover a system because the access paths do not need to be rebuilt.</p>
<p>The server saves access paths that logical files own, and that are not
used for referential constraints if all of the following are true: </p>
<ul><li>You specify ACCPTH(*YES) on the save command for the physical files.</li>
<li>All based-on physical files under the logical file are in the same library
and are being saved at the same time on the same save command.</li>
<li>The logical file is MAINT(*IMMED) or MAINT(*DLY).</li>
</ul>
<p>In all cases, the server saves an access path only if it is valid and not
damaged at the time of the save operation.</p>
<p>When you save a physical file that is not a source file, the server saves
the following types of access paths with it, even if you do or do not specify
ACCPTH(*YES): </p>
<ul><li>Keyed access paths that are owned by the physical file</li>
<li>Primary key constraints</li>
<li>Unique constraints</li>
<li>Referential constraints</li>
</ul>
<p>If the based-on physical files and the logical files are in different libraries,
the server saves the access paths. However, the server may not restore these
access paths. Look for information about restoring access paths in the <a href="../books/sc415304.pdf" target="_blank">Backup and Recovery book</a><img src="wbpdf.gif" alt="Link to PDF" />.</p>
