*** Software Functions ***
Due to the ongoing changes in BOSS/VS, this section of the handbook will not be
maintained as a step-by-step OS installation procedure.
Instead, use the Software Announcement document for the level of BOSS/VS which
applies each time. If the customer does not have a copy of the Software
Announcement, it should be available to you in the F.I.B. BOSS/VS section of the
SOFTWARE category. Also, each new BOSS/VS tape issued by MBF contains a copy of
the file which can be submitted for printing. This file is named as follows:
LEVELS PRIOR TO n.6C
o (Family name).+ release + .INST.DOC.SA + last 2 characters of release.
n.6C AND LATER LEVELS
o (Family name).+ release +.INST.DOC.ANNOUNCE + last 2 characters of release..
*** EXAMPLES ***
(DISK).R6A13.INST.DOC.SA6A = Software Announcement file for n.6A
(DISK).R6C15.INST.DOC.ANNOUNCE6C = Software Announcement file for n.6C
o It is highly recommended that this file (along with the Errors List and
diagnostic information files) be printed at each installation and kept in a
binder for future reference.
o If you are updating the system to a new O.S. level, the Software
Announcement can be restored from tape using SAVERESTORE, and the full
file name used as the file specifier.
o The new Software Announcement can then be SUBMITted to the SPOOLER and
printed prior to starting the update.
* The following is a method to obtain a Errors List (four-tuple listing):
o While in console mode with a ! prompt, enter:
DISPLAY $WHERE(ERRORS.LIST) (press CR)
o The system will respond with the ERRORS.LIST fully qualified
name (as follows):
(DISK).R5C15.SYS.ERRORS.LIST (press CR)
o Now enter SUBMIT followed by the above system response (as follows):
SUBMIT (DISK).R5C15.SYS.ERRORS.LIST (press CR)
o The Errors List will print on the first available 'P' printer.
o Also, remember that the error message for a specific four-tuple (from the
error list file) can be obtained by entering !ERR followed by the
four-tuple code as shown below:
!ERR 21,1,1,16
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB001 Pg001
o The system will respond with the error message for the four-tuple entered.
* Consult the presite information package from the MBF Branch Sales office for
system/data disk configuration, disk family set-up, special port
configurations, and horizontal software packages to be installed if this is
an MBF Branch supported area.
* Use the appropriate Software Announcement for OS installation and upgrade
procedures.
The following are some pointers to insure your success:
1. READ the prompts and understand them before responding.
2. Pay attention to the required responces. Do not type Y when YES is
required or N when NO is required.
3. When difficulty is encountered or something is unclear in the
Software Announcement call for assistance.
4. Get a print-out of the system terminal configuration PRIOR to
beginning this procedure (if possible).
o During the O.S. installation procedure, all communication with the system
will be via Port 0 of the MCS PCBA. This is J10, the bottom connector of
the MCS. However, if there is a High Speed Video controller installed in
the CCA, then all communication will be on the first port on the first VCON.
This is J0, the bottom connector of the VCON.
* The size of the dump area is calculated as follows:
Each megabyte of main memory.....1024
MCS four way controller............64
Each eight-way controller..........64
Each sixteen-way controller.......128
Each IMLC controller...............64
Each LAN controller................64
Each BMTC controller..............128
If this is a late level OS it will calculate the value for you and display
it on the bottom of the screen. ADD 3000 TO THIS VALUE to allow for
hardware upgrades without having to re-initialize the family.
* Primary and secondary prefixs should be set as follows:
on OS levels prior to n.6G
(Family name). + release no. + .SYS.,. + release no. + .INST.
EX.
(DISK).R6A11.SYS.,.R6A11.INST.
on OS level n.6G and later
(Family name). + release no. + .SYS.,. + release no. + .DIAG.
EX.
(DISK).R6G43.SYS.,.R6G43.DIAG.
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB001 Pg002
* Test load from all slots after OS installation is complete.
NOTE: If OS level is n.6G and the customer has not signed the Diagnostic
Product License Agreement, diagnostics must be removed from the system.
Use the Diagnostic Removal procedure in the Software Announcement.

*** Diagnostics Information ***
All available MPx Series diagnostics are documented via files contained in
the INST.DOC. node on the OS disk for OS levels prior to R6Gxx. The files are .
in the DIAG.DOC.node starting with release R6Gxx. A program named DOCWRITER is
located under the same node. The purpose of DOCWRITER is to print or display the
diagnostic files.
Diagnostics are in the ().Rxzz.DIAG. node for releases starting with R6G43.
To run NEWX your prefix must be set properly also.
eg. ().R6G43.DIAG. or ().R6C11.INST.
Using DOCWRITER:
At each system installation site, a hardcopy of this documentation must be
maintained. In order to obtain the hardcopy perform the following:
1. Get into console mode with a ! prompt displayed.
2. Enter SYSPREFIX and press CR.
(A) The system will respond by displaying the System Prefix such as:
().R6A13.SYS. <- or -> ().R6A13.SYS.,.R6A13.INST.
().R6G43.SYS. <- or -> ().R6G43.SYS.,.R6G43.DIAG.
3. In order to set your prefix to that desired, enter the following:
(A) PREFIX + a space + (). + Rxyzz + .INST. and press CR
or for OS R6Gxx and later
PREFIX + a space + (). + Rxyzz + .DIAG. and press CR
Where xyzz = the O.S. release displayed in step 2 - eg. 6A13
EXAMPLE: PREFIX ().R6A13.INST. or PREFIX ().R6G43.DIAG.
(B) The system will respond with "User Prefix Set"
4. Enter DOCWRITER and press CR
DOCWRITER will run and display similar to that below:

Several of the diagnostics were designed for use by manufacturing testing
and/or for component level repair purposes (see descriptions below).
The following is a listing of those which the Field Engineer should need:
DOCWRITER, REMIDI, DEMON, DCL, NEWX, PRTDIA, MDTDIA, REMMPC
*** BRIEF DIAGNOSTICS DESCRIPTIONS ***
REMIDIA and REMIDIB:
REMIDI is the most basic micro diagnostic. The requirements for loading and
running of this diagnostic are a working disk with the REMIDI slots written and
at least one working computer engine set. When REMIDI is booted, WCS data is
loaded into a processor and executed. System dedication is required.
The main function of REMIDI is to test the processor(s)/memory functions. See
the User's Manual for complete details.
PROMIDIA and PROMIDIB:
The PROMIDI diagnostics have been designed in such a way as to be able to
identify functional faults on any of the Computer Engines PCBAs. The main use
of PROMIDI is for component level repair. System dedication is required.
DEMON:
DEMON is an I/O controller, I/O device and CPU memory diagnostic. Before
accepting inputs from the F.E., DEMON interrogates the system to find which
devices are attached to the system. DEMON does not utilize the O.S
configuration record. System dedication is required. See the User's Manual for
complete details.
DCL:
The purpose of the Diagnostic Command List (DCL) program is to provide an
on-line user selectable diagnostic capability. It allows the user to generate
and execute I/O command sequences on the desired I/O device(s). This diagnostic
can be run on-line and therefore does not require system dedication. See the
User's Manual for complete details.
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB002 Pg002
NEWX:
NEWX is a menu driven, on-line I/O diagnostic. It is in many ways similar to
the DEMON diagnostic. Since it is an on-line diagnostic system dedication is
not required. See the User's Manual for complete details.
MDLOAD:
The purpose of MDLOAD is to provide a component level diagnostic for repair
center use on the MCS, 8-way, 16-way, LAN, BMTC and IMLC controllers.
PRTDIA:
PRTDIA is a diagnostic used to test character printers attached to MDT type
terminals which are attached to the system via an IMLC. This is an on-line
diagnostic and therefore does not require system dedication. See the User's
Manual for complete details.
MDTDIA:
MDTDIA is a diagnostic used to test the MDT terminal - including CPM/VDM
memory. It also tests the data path to the MDT through the IMLC. This is an
on-line diagnostic and therefore does not require system dedication.
PROMMPC:
PROMMPC is similar to PROMIDI and is used on the 7000-7100 series for
component level repair of the MPC PCBA.
REMMPC:
REMMPC is similar to REMIDI and is used on the 7000-7100 series for testing
the MPC PCBA. Requires system dedication. See the User's Manuals for complete
details.
PROMLAN:
PROMLAN is similar to PROMIDI and is used to test the LAN controller.
Requires system dedication.
_______________________________________________________________________________
In addition, there is a general system exerciser called COOK. While this is
not a "diagnostic", as such, COOK is an excellent method to "load down" the
MPx system with work.
To run COOK, do the following:
You must be logged onto the system with System Manager priviledge and the
logon must have no initial command specified. If an initial command is setup
for the logon used, all COOK task started will start with that initial
command specified instead of the various COOK test programs.
1. Get into console mode with a ! prompt displayed.
2. Enter SYSPREFIX and press CR.
(A) The system will respond by displaying the System Prefix such as:
().R6A13.SYS. <- or -> ().R6A13.SYS.,.R6A13.INST.
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB002 Pg003
3. In order to set your prefix to that desired, enter the following:
(A) PREFIX + a space + (). + Rxyzz + .BURN. and press CR
Where xyzz = the O.S. release displayed in step 2 - eg. 6A13
EXAMPLE: PREFIX ().R6A13.BURN.
(B) The system will respond with "User Prefix Set"
4. Enter COOK and press CR.

*** PCBA Plugging Charts ***
*** NOTE ***
Empty backplane slots between PCBAs cause halts, hangs and various other
intermittant, hard to diagnose problems.
The only place where empty backplane slots between PCBAs is allowed is between
the Memory PCBAs and other system PCBAs. This is allowable ONLY on the 7XXX and
8XXX systems. NO empty slots between PCBAs are allowed on the 9XXX and ASXX
systems. It is recommended that the PCBAs be arranged so all spare slots are all
adjacent.to the end terminators in all systems, thus eliminating the possibility
of errors.

*** SMDI and SMDII PCBAs ***
The following information applies to these PCBA part numbers:
MM560000 - SMDI PCBA - 903531-001
MM294001 - SMDI PCBA - 903591-001
MM894075 - SMDII PCBA - 903633-001
There are no dip switches to be set on these PCBAs.
There is one LED on this PCBA, near the top. It indicates that power is on.
ADDRESSING:
On the SMDI PCBAs (903531-001 & 903591-001), there is no drive address select
jumpering. Each SMDI will accept two drives. The drive whose radial cable
connects to SMDI connector J6 must have its address set for drive 0 (or 2) and
the drive whose radial cable connects to SMDI connector J5 must have its address
set for
drive 1 (or 3).
On the SMDII PCBA (903663-001), jumper JP1, located between the chips at
locations 5E and 5F, is used to select the addresses which the DMA will be
presenting to the SMDII. The silkscreen on the PCBA shows how to jumper and
depends whether the drives connected to the SMDII are 0 and 1 or 2 and 3
(controller relative rather than system relative, the first two drives on a
controller will always be 0 & 1 even if they are drives 6 & 7 to the system).
Both drives attached to the SMDII must have their addresses set to drive 0.
TIME DELAY:
On the SMDI PCBAs (903531-001 & 903591-001), near the Power-On LED, is located
a Time Delay jumper block. This jumper selects the time delay for the PFD IN -
to - PFD OUT signal used in the sequencing of "run power" to each 8" drive. The
jumper may be placed in any one of the eight positions to delay the PFD OUT
signal from 10 to 80 seconds. The time delays provided by each jumper position
are as follows:
JUMPER DELAY
POSITION (SECONDS)
-------- ---------
0 10
1 20
2 30
3 40
4 50
5 60
6 70
7 80
Installation in position 0 is satisfactory for the MPx Systems.
On the SMDII PCBA (903633-001), near the bottom and between the Radial cable
connectors, are located JP2 and JP3. These jumpers function the same as the
jumper block mentioned in the above SMDI paragraph, except that there is a
separate jumper for the two drives attached to the SMDII; JP3 controls drive 0
and JP2 controls drive 1. The time delay is marked on the PCBA under the jumper
blocks. The selections are 0, 30 and 60 seconds.
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB033 Pg001
Jumpering for 0 seconds is satisfactory for MPx Systems.
NOTE: If the jumper(s) are left out of these PCBAs, the disk drive(s) will
not power down with the system.
TERMINATION:
The SMD interface PCBA is terminated by three (3) sip resistor networks, which
are socketed for easy removal and replacement (near J1). If no other drives or
SMDs are connected to the SMD PCBA BUS OUT connector - J2, then the
terminators must be installed.
Terminator SIP pack orientation is as follows:
SMDI PCBA - pin 1 (identified by a black dot) faces pin 50 (left) of the
50 pin bus cable in connector J1. When correctly oriented, the
black dot on all three resistor packs (SIPs) will be towards
pin 50 (left) of the bus cable.
SMDII PCBA - pin 1 (identified by a black dot) faces pin 1 (right) of the
50 pin bus cable in connector J1. When correctly oriented, the
black dot on all three resistor packs (SIPs) will be towards
pin 1 (right) of the bus cable.
There may have been a few SMDII PCBAs revision "X1" shipped in the MPx 9100
Beta units. The correct terminator pack orientation on these PCBAs will be
the same as the SMDI PCBAs.
The SMDI has a daisy chained bus cable. The last drive attached to the SMDI
must have a bus terminator installed.
The SMDII has a separate bus cable connecting to each drive attached. All
drives attached to the SMDII must have a bus terminator attached.
NOTE:
The SMDII can be used to replace an SMDI (and vice-versa) if the additional bus
cable/terminators are available. However, the SMDII is required in the 71XX
systems.

*** Memory Time-out & Parity Dump Analysis ***
Memory dumps may be reported in several ways depending on OS level and the
error being detected. Some of the different Four-tuples are:
MEMORY PARITY ERRORS MEMORY TIME-OUT ERRORS
____________________ ______________________
1,0,xxx,6 1,0,xxx,5
1,64,xxx,6 1,64,xxx,5
1,128,xxx,6 1,128,xxx,5
1,255,xxx,6 1,255,xxx,5
28,106,1,xxx 28,105,1,xxx
1,255,255,6 - probable bad ESTK 1,255,255,5 - probable bad ESTK
Whenever a Memory Time-out Error or a Memory Parity Error four-tuple occurs,
the value of X (contained within the four-tuple) may be used to determine which
system PCBA caused the dump.
Since the memory maps are different between the 7XXX/8XXX and the 9XXX Systems,
separate charts for diagnosis are required. Use the appropriate chart below to
determine which PCBA caused the dump.
*** 7XXX or 8XXX SYSTEMS ***
The following are examples of how to use the chart:

The system has dumped, producing a four-tuple of 1,0,76,6. In this case the
four-tuple "X VALUE" is 76. Locate 76 in the "FOUR-TUPLE X VALUE" column. This
number falls within the bracket for the second half megabyte of the 5th
megabyte of main memory. The failing PCBA may be found by observing the address
switch setting on the memory PCBAs, looking for Megabyte 5, second half.
EXAMPLE #2:
The system has dumped, producing a four-tuple of 1,0,199,5. In this case the .
four-tuple "X VALUE" is 199. Locate 199 in the "FOURTUPLE X VALUE" column. The
arrow to the right of 199 indicates that the ISDC that is addressed "08" caused
this dump. Remember that 16ways and BMTCs have two ISDC addresses assigned.

*** 9XXX SYSTEMS ***
If the CPU number (indicated in the dump) contains an IDC, use the X value (from
the four-tuple) listed under "IDC". In this case, the failing PCBA is one of the
four shown bracketed. See example #1 below:
EXAMPLE #1:
The dump shows a 1,0,55,5 four-tuple and CPU 1 on a 9020 system. CPU 1 is
checked and found to have an IDC - not an IDC-64.
The "X VALUE" from the four-tuple is 55. Find the number 55, looking under the
"X VALUE IDC" column. Looking to the right, you will find that this failure was
caused by one of the ISDCs addressed 48,49,50 or 51. Remember that 16-ways and
BMTCs have two addresses assigned to them. Isolation of the exact failing ISDC
(of the four possibles) must be done by replacement (if there is no error LED
illuminated).
If the CPU number (indicated in the dump) contains an IDC-64, use the X value
(from the four-tuple) listed under "IDC-64". In this case the failing PCBA is
the one immediately to the right of the X value. See example #2 below:
EXAMPLE #2:
The dump shows a 1,0,55,6 four-tuple and CPU #0 on a 9530 system. CPU #0 is
checked and found to have an IDC-64 - not an IDC.
The "X VALUE" from the four-tuple is 55. Find the number 55, looking under the
"X VALUE IDC-64" column. Looking to the right, you will find that this failure
was caused by the Main Memory PCBA that is addressed as 1st half megabyte of
the 4th megabyte.
** NOTE **
RSTK PCBA parity errors will also cause a 1,0,X,6 dump. The dump message,
therefore, does not descriminate between RSTK and Main Memory errors. It is
necessary to check the error LEDs if a memory PCBA is indicated in the chart
below.

*** Disk formatting and defective track assignment ***
The information in this bulletin will assist you in Fixed Disk formatting
and defective track assignment and relocation using the D.I.V.E. software.
D.I.V.E is an acronym for Disk Initialization, Verification and Evaluation. The
program is located on and may be loaded from the customer's O.S. tape.
R.O.T. is an acronym for Relocate One Track. This is an option on the D.I.V.E..
program menu.
LOADING THE D.I.V.E. PROGRAM:
*** NOTE ***
If you are about to relocate (ROT) a track, before loading the DIVE program,
proceed to the "DEFECTIVE TRACK RELOCATION:" heading on page 2 and follow
the instructions.
1. Obtain the system from the customer and make certain that no users are on
the system.
2. Mount the customer's O.S. tape on the streamer tape drive and make the drive
READY and ONLINE.
3. Press the ALTLOAD key on the system operator console.
The system will boot from the streamer. The screen on terminal T0 (bottom
port of MCS PCBA or if there is a VCON in the system, the bottom port on
the 1st VCON) will be cleared and the system will display: L O A D I N G . .
While the L O A D I N G message is displayed, toggle the upper switch on the
MCS PCBA. This must be done within 5 seconds or you will miss the D.I.V.E.
load and the system will display options for updating O.S. and WCS slot 0.
If you were too slow, perform step 3 again (the tape will rewind by itself
when you press ALTLOAD).
4. The D.I.V.E. program menu will be displayed. There will be three options:
1. FORMAT A DISK
2. RELOCATE ONE TRACK
3. QUIT
5. If you wish to format the disk, type 1 and press CR; if you want to
relocate one track, type 2 and press CR.
FIXED DISK DRIVE FORMATTING:
o The system will run through several prompts which are quite simple to
answer. The following are some things to remember:
. A. Read each answer option carefully. If the prompt answer says (YES/NO) then
enter YES or NO. If you answer with Y or N, the system may not react as
expected. Conversely, don't answer YES or NO to a (Y/N) prompt.
B. Be certain to answer the "STOP ON ERROR?" prompt with NO.
C. The 5 1/4" disks on the 7xxx systems are to be formatted using the ECC
option only - DO NOT use CRC format on the 5 1/4" drives.
(continued on next page)
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB038 Pg001
D. On all drives other than the 5 1/4" units, formatting must be done using
the CRC option only - DO NOT use ECC format.
E. Be certain to type in all known defects from the drive's printed defect
list.
DEFECTIVE TRACK RELOCATION:
o When it is necessary to assign an alternate track on a disk drive or pack,
you MUST first determine which files may be affected by the ROT action. In
order to do this, perform the following steps:
1. Determine (from the Error Log) the problem Drive number, Cylinder number
and Head number and record that information on paper.
As an example the problem information is as follows:
DRIVE 3 (Unit Address 32), CYLINDER 344, HEAD 1
2. From a ! prompt, enter SYSPREFIX and press CR.
The system will respond with: (xxxx).Rxxxx.SYS.,etc
o Set your prefix to the INST node using the above as follows:
Enter PREFIX (xxxx).Rxxxx.INST. and press CR.
(use the actual data displayed on the SYSPREFIX in place of the x's)
o From a ! prompt, enter ALTTRACKS and press CR.
The system will respond with a screen similar to this:

* 2) 2 2 18 Disk R T285 *
* 3) 3 3 32 Disk F P144 *
*. *
*******************************************************************************
o Find the problem drive number on this screen and write down the description.
o In this example, Drive 3, Unit 32 (Unit Address) is a Disk F P144. The F
means FIXED, the P144 indicates that this is a Priam drive with a FORMATTED
capacity of 144 megabytes. The portion of the description we need in this
procedure is the P144.
3. From a ! prompt, enter HEADS and press CR.

o Under FILENAME are the names of all files which have data contained within
the track that is to be relocated. In this example the file names are:
".F.ED.REC08271149", ".FIB.DATA.FIB000900003" and ".FIB.DATA.FIB0119000008"
*** CAUTION ***
Since some sectors in that track are defective, the data may not be
recovered on the ROT operation, in which case the file(s) will be corrupted.
If no file names are given under FILENAME, but instead, the system displays
"< BELOW FS DOMAIN", this means that the defective sectors are located in
either the disk label area or other crucial BOSS/VS areas. If this is the
case, be aware that, if data is unrecoverable, it will be necessary to
perform various disk repair operations after the ROT is done. If you have
this situation, contact the local Basic Four Program Support group or Sorbus
support personel before proceeding with the ROT. In any case, BE CERTAIN a
COMPLETE, VERIFIED backup of the disk is available!
File names that begin with a colon (:) are special File System files. If any
of the file names given start with a colon (such as :DIRECTORY, :DIR, :NODES,
:AVSP01, etc.) and the data is not recoverable during the ROT, it will be
necessary to repair the file via Diskanalyzer, Type II load, etc.
This is true for all files starting with a colon except ":OVERLAY" which is
cleared during each boot of BOSS/VS. If any other file starting with a colon
is given contact the local Basic Four Program Support group or Sorbus support
personel before proceeding with the ROT.
o If neither of the conditions of the above two paragraphs apply, advise the
customer of the file names and verify that they have an adequate backup of
the files prior performing the ROT activity.
o If no file names are given under FILENAME, but instead, the system displays
"(AVAILABLE FILE SPACE)", then you may proceed with the ROT since the track
contains no active data.
o Perform all steps listed under "LOADING THE D.I.V.E. PROGRAM" shown on
page 1 and then proceed with the track relocation prompts.

*** Bootable O.S. & Diagnostic Tape Information ***
810 and 9xxx systems boot from tape using the first file on tape, 7xxx and 8xxx
systems boot from tape using the second file on tape, and Advanced Series
Systems boot from the file number on the tape which is selected by the sense
switches (0=1ST, 3=4TH). Therefore the files must be placed on tape in the
proper.order to make the tape bootable. The file order (if any additional files
are on the tape) after the first files (two files for MPx, four files for
Advanced Series) is not relevant to the tape boot process.
This allows a tape to be used for more than one system type on the same O.S.
release (810/8xxx, 8xxx/9xxx).
Since the software support for the 810 ended at release 8.4D and the first 9xxx
release was 9.5C, there is no problem with utilization of the first file.
Use the SAVERESTORE utility, save files to tape option, to create bootable
tapes.

*** 1,x,y,5 & 1,x,y,6 MEM Pty & Timeout Dump Analysis - ASxx Systems ***
This FIB applies only the ASxx systems, for memory dumps on MPx systems consult
FIB 37 in this handbook.
Dumps with 1,x,y,5 values indicate memory timeout failures and dumps with
1,x,y,6 values indicate memory parity failures.
The x value is a combination of CPU number plus the 16 megabyte bank address
the failure occurred in.
The y value is the failing address within the 16 megabyte bank (in 64 KB
increments). Y can be a value between 0 and 255. The y value will in most cases
not fall on a boundary shown in the following chart but will instead fall within
one of the address ranges indicated.
Find the x value in the following chart and then find the range containing the .
y value within the x value range to locate the failing PCBA (or location
reported as failing). EX. dump = 1,9,62,5 - memory timeout, ON CPU 2, in main
memory PCBA addressed for 16-19 meg.

*** System Hang/Dump Recovery Procedures [ WPSF 506 ] ***
This procedure should be followed after a system dump or a system load due to a
system hang.
Step 1) After the dump is completed, reload system and enter a Type II load.
Choose the option DISKANALYZER. The DISKANALYZER main menu will appear.
Step 2) First check the directory and the available space. Choose option 6
"CHECK DIRECTORY AND AVAILABLE SPACE FILES". Each family needs to be
checked. If errors are reported, that directory and available space will
need to be reconstructed (this operation is explained in step 4).
Step 3) Check for overlapping or missing space by choosing option 5 "DISK SPACE
USAGE" (SPACE MISSING/OVERLAPPING)". If the option reports that space is
missing, then the available space file must be reconstructed to reclaim.
that space. If 2 or more files are overlapping, then certain actions
must be taken to resolve the conflict. To fix this, do the following
steps:
A) Make a backup of the system (just in case).
B) Only one of the overlapping files can exist in that filespace. First
you have to determine which files are not the proper owner. Use
option 2 "VALIDATE/RECONSTRUCT A FILE". It is possible that the files
are not bad and can be saved by copying the files to a new location
(another disk or tape) and deleting its source. If not, then delete
the files that do not own the filespace.
C) The available space file will have to be reconstructed. (This is
explained in step 4).
D) After reconstruction, recheck the directory and available space
files using options 5 and 6. Repeat steps B, C, D as necessary.
Step 4) Steps 2 and 3 will identify any problems with the directory and the
available space files. If the files are reported to have problems, they
must be reconstructed before processing can continue. If both the
directory and the available space must be reconstructed, the available
space file MUST be reconstructed first. To reconstruct the available
space file, choose option 9 "RECONSTRUCT AVAILABLE SPACE FILES (TYPE II
LOAD)". To reconstruct the directory, choose option 10 "RECONSTRUCT
DIRECTORY FILE (TYPE II LOAD)".
Step 5) Next, the files must be validated. To do this use option 1 "FIND FILES
THAT LACK INTEGRITY". This option will find any files that have the
integrity flag set. This option does not check the file structure, only
the integrity flag. If persistant problems with file corruption occur,
then use option 3 "VALIDATE FILES". This option provides a very thorough
check of each file's internal structure.
Step 6) The files found to have problems from step 5 must be fixed. Files
critical to the operation of the system and the application should be
fixed using option 2 "VALIDATE/RECONSTRUCT A FILE". Files that are not
critical should be reconstructed in a Type I load. This will allow you
to start reconstruction on multiple terminals.
HANDBOOKS-BASIC FOUR-MPx & ASxx Systems-------------FIB048 Pg001
Step 7) Enter a Type I load. Reconstruct the files not reconstructed in step 6.
Keyed (DIRECT, SORT, MULTIKEY) files should be reconstructed FIRST using
the RECONSTRUCT utility. This utility is faster than DISKANALYZER. If
RECONSTRUCT cannot fix the file, then DISKANALYZER option 2 must be used
to repair the file. Serial and indexed files are repaired using
DISKANALYZER.
