The following points should be considered when the system switchover facility is used to create a HiRDB file system area:

• Use the pdfmkfs command with the -i option specified. If the -i option is not specified, files might become corrupted if there is a power abnormality at the server machine while the HiRDB file system is being expanded.
• Do not specify SVR (the default) in the -k option of the pdfmkfs command. If SVR is specified in the -k option, then when the HiRDB file system area is created, HiRDB will continue processing at the point where the Windows file cache was written. Because of this, if an abnormality occurs before data is written to the disk, file integrity may be lost.
