Corrects several types of database problems. You can use the RMU
Repair command to:
o Repair all types of space area management (SPAM) page
corruptions by reconstructing the SPAM pages in one or more
storage areas.
o Repair all area bit map (ABM) page format errors.
o Repair all page tail errors to the satisfaction of the RMU
Verify operation by making sure that every database page is
in a logical area and contains the appropriate information for
that logical area.
o Correct some performance problems that might otherwise have to
be corrected by exporting and importing the database.
o Set damaged or missing segmented string (LIST OF BYTE VARYING)
areas that are stored in write-once areas to null.
The repair operation cannot correct corrupted user data, or
corrupted indexes; use other commands such as the RMU Restore,
the RMU Recover, the SQL IMPORT, or the RMU Load command and
delete the affected structures to correct these problems.
NOTE
Use of the Abm or the Initialize=Tsns qualifier disables
after-image journaling. After issuing an RMU Repair command
with these qualifiers, back up the database and reenable
journaling manually.
