Use this procedure to wait for a synchronization point to release any held journal entries for file identified by a data group file entry, then resume replication.

The request changes the file entry status to *RLSWAIT. Any journal entries for the associated file are discarded until a File member saved (F-MS) journal entry or a Start of save of a physical file member using save-while-active function (F-SS) is encountered. This is the synchronization point. The file entry status is then changed to *ACTIVE and all journal entries that were held after the synchronization point are applied.

If the F-MS or F-SS journal entry is not in the log space, the file entry remains in *RLSWAIT status. If you are unsure as to how many save requests might accumulate for an object, you can synchronize the file associated with the file entry. The entry status will become *ACTIVE.

To wait for a synchronization point before releasing a held file, do the following:

  1. From the MIMIX Basic Main Menu select option 6 (Work with Data Groups) and press Enter.

  2. The Work with Data Groups display appears. Type 17 (File entries) next to the data group you want and press Enter.

  3. The Work with DG File Entries display appears. Type 25 (Release wait) next to the entry you want and press Enter.
