Load Trace

Load tracing is available via the -t 8 or -t 0x8 command line option. Load tracing messages refer to the client control tables. To check these tables, use the dbutility display command. See dbutility Commands.

The Load External messages are displayed only during a dbutility define or redefine command. They indicate that the DATABridge Client is reading table names defined in other data sources to make sure that any newly-defined tables and indexes do not duplicate table names or index names defined previously in other data sources.

The following messages may appear when you use load tracing:

Message

Description

Load: DataSet =
name[/rectype],
strnum = number,
AFN = afn , ABSN = absn

This message appears for every data set loaded from the DATASETS client control table. The message lists the data set name (and the record type for variable-format data sets) as well as the structure number, the audit file number, and the audit block serial number. For most commands, this message appears for only those data sets whose active column is 1.

Load: dms_item = name, item_number = number, DataSet =
name[/rectype]

This message appears for every DMS item loaded from the DMS_ITEMS client control table. The message lists the data set name (and the record type for variable-format data sets) as well as the DMSII item name and the corresponding item number.

This message does not appear during the process and clone commands because all of the information the DMS_ITEMS entries contain is in the DATAITEMS client control table.

Load: datatable = name, DataSet =
name[/rectype]

This message appears for every data table loaded from the DATATABLES client control table. The message lists the data set name (and the record type for variable-format data sets) and the table name.

Load: dataitem = name, datatable = name

This message appears for every data table loaded from the DATAITEMS client control table. The message also displays the table name to which the item belongs.

Load External: DataSource=name, TableName=name, IndexName=name

The Load External messages appear during a dbutility define or redefine command only. They indicate that the DATABridge Client is reading table names defined in other data sources to make sure that any newly-defined tables and indexes do not duplicate table names or index names defined previously in other data sources.

Load: global_dataset = Global_DataSet, AFN = afn, ABSN = absn

This message appears when the global data set is loaded from the DATASETS client control table. Under normal circumstances, the AFN and the ABSN is 0 as the DATABridge Client sets these entries to 0 after it propagates the global stateinfo for all data sets that have a value of 1 in their in_sync columns before the process command terminates.
