The pdinit command, which you execute to initialize a database, updates the master directory RDAREA without outputting an update log. Therefore, after normal termination of the pdinit command and before starting online transactions, execute the pairsyncwait command (with the -g aaaa_bb....bb_DB -t 600 options specified) on the paired logical volume group that stores the RDAREAs used by the single server or dictionary server. Confirm that the command terminates normally with DONE. The following figure shows the procedure for initializing a database.
