The audits and commands that compare file data or record counts are as follows:
-
#FILDTA audit or Compare File Data (CMPFILDTA) command
-
#MBRRCDCNT audit or Compare Record Count (CMPRCDCNT) command
Each record in the output files for these audits or commands identifies a file member that has been compared and indicates whether a difference was detected for that member.
You can see the full set of fields in each output file by viewing it from the native user interface.
The type of data included in the output file is determined by the report type specified on the compare command. The data included for each report type is as follows:
-
Difference reports (RPTTYPE(*DIF)) return information about detected differences. Difference reports are the default for these compare commands.
-
Full reports (RPTTYPE(*ALL)) return information about all objects and attributes compared. Full reports include both differences and objects that are considered synchronized. Audits use this report type.
-
Relative record number reports (RPTTYPE(*RRN)) return the relative record number of the first 1,000 records of a member that fail to compare. Relative record number reports apply only to the Compare File Data command.
