12.1.3 Execution environment

  1. You can execute pdpgbfon only while HiRDB is running.
  2. Execute the pdpgbfon command at the server machine containing the single server or the server machine where the system manager is located.
  3. You can execute pdpgbfon when the target RDAREAs are in open or reference-possible shutdown status. For details about whether or not pdpgbfon can be executed, see Appendix C. RDAREA Status During Command Execution.
  4. When you will be executing pdpgbfon, allocate a sufficient number of global buffer sectors so that all data in the target table's data pages or index pages can be read. If a space shortage occurs in the global buffer, the first page read will be swept out of the global buffer.
