FUP Commands

The FUP LOAD command reads the source file directly using large buffers unless
you specify SHARE, in which case the Enscribe file system performs the reads.

You can use a SORT DEFINE with the LOAD command. You must define it before
starting FUP. For more information, see the FastSort Manual.

For key-sequenced files, you can specify the percentage of slack space you want
to keep for future insertions.

If you specify the PARTOF option when loading a file that is not partitioned, you
receive one of these error messages:

File-system error 11 (file not in directory) if the primary partition specified with
PARTOF does not exist

The message BAD PARTITION PARAMETERS if the primary partition
specified with PARTOF is not a partitioned file—or is not a partition of the file
being loaded
Note. For more information about error messages, see

Before you load partitioned files, consider these restrictions:

The range of keys for the different partitions is stored in the primary partition of
a partitioned file.

If you try to load a secondary partition but you did not specify the PARTOF
option, you receive an error message.

The FUP process loads all partitions if you do not specify PARTOF, and
destination-filename is the primary partition.

To load a secondary partition, specify the name of the secondary partition as
destination-filename, and specify the name of the volume where the
primary partition resides (for the PARTOF option).

To load only the primary partition, specify the name of the primary partition as
destination-filename, and specify the name of the primary volume for
the PARTOF option.

To sort the in-filename records, you must have both disk space for the sort
scratch file and for destination-filename during the sorting phase.

Use the PAD and TRIM options carefully in a FUP LOAD or COPY operation.
Caution. If your data contains trim-character or pad-character, data might be altered
or lost.
An example of this situation occurs if you pad each record in a data file with zeros
to a standard size in bytes and then store the records in another file. If you trim the
trailing zeros when you execute a FUP LOAD or COPY of the stored records, any
original data that ends with a zero is trimmed. To avoid this problem, use a value
for pad-character or trim-character that is not contained in your data.
