6.2 Checking database usage
JP1/AJS3 uses a database to manage definition information and execution registration information for jobs. If data is added or deleted repeatedly, the efficiency of data usage decreases, resulting in degraded data search performance and potential problems.
You can avoid problems by periodically checking the usage of the database and by using the ajsembdbreclaim command to reclaim space during operation.
Generally, database reorganization is seldom required if you periodically use the ajsembdbreclaim command for maintenance. Note, however, that if the usage efficiency of the database has dropped greatly, database reorganization might be required. For details about how to reorganize the database, see 10.2.2 Reorganizing a database.
