Procedure 6-28
Polling disks from a nonredundant mode
Step Description
123
(Optional step) Enter the following command if you wish to keep track of the AMA files to
be polled:
>IDXMAINT DIR CLOSED AMA 200 (cr)
124
Write any remaining call records to the AMA data file. Enter (at the terminal):
>IDXMAINT CREATE FILE AMA (cr)
>IDXMAINT SUMMARY AMA (cr)
Determine whether there are any more AMA blocks to be polled. This is new data.
Repeat step 9. After three attempts, if new data keeps coming in and this is lowest traffic,
a tape must be cut from DIRP and sent in for processing.
125
Display the currently active files. The active files on the current disk must be closed
before switching disk modes. Enter (at the terminal):
>LSTACT (cr)
System response: FILE OPEN: ii ss tt bbb (line repeats for each open file)
126
The files identified (ii) by the output of step 12 must be closed. Continue entering the
following command for each of the files in the response. Enter (at the terminal):
>CLSACT ii (cr)
When executing the CLSACT command, it is possible that a disk file error may occur.
Refer to the Commands and Messages Guide section for any error messages that occur.
127
Enter (at the terminal):
>LSTACT (cr)
Alternate between steps 13 and 14 until the following response to the LSTACT command
is seen:
0 FILES LISTED
If a block header is received before moving onto step 15, repeat step 12-14 until all active
files are closed.
