Root
Noroot
Specifies that, in a multifile database, only fields in the
database root (.rdb) file and all the pointers to the database
(.rda, .snp, .aij) files are verified. The snapshot (.snp) files
are validated; that is, only the first page is checked to make
sure that it is indeed an .snp file and belongs to the database
being verified. If after-image journaling is enabled, the .aij
files are validated. The AIP and ABM pages are verified when you
specify the Root qualifier.
If you specify the Noroot qualifier, and no other qualifiers,
only the AIP pages are verified. If you specify the Noroot
qualifier, and the Areas or the Lareas qualifier, ABM and SPAM
pages are verified as the other pages in the storage area or
logical area are verified.
See the Usage Notes entry in this command for the rules that
determine which qualifiers can be used in combination on the same
RMU Verify command line.
You can specify the Root qualifier for a single-file database.
The default is the Root qualifier.
