Use this procedure to ignore any journal entries for an file identified by a data group file entry. The request changes the file entry status to *HLDIGN. Any journal entries for the associated file, including any hold logs, are discarded. The *HLDIGN status remains until additional action is taken.
If a file has been on hold for a long time or you expect that it will be, the amount of storage used by the error/hold log space can be quite large. If you anticipate that you will need to save and restore the file or replace it for any other reason, it may be best to just ignore all current transactions.
Do the following:
From the MIMIX Basic Main Menu select option
6(Work with Data Groups) and press Enter.The Work with Data Groups display appears. Type
17(File entries) next to the data group you want and press Enter.The Work with DG File Entries display appears. Type
24(Ignore file) next to the entry you want and press Enter.
The status of the file is changed to *HLDIGN. The file entry is ignored. Journal entries for the file entry, including any hold logs, are discarded.
