Confirming the end request completed without problems - assure_mimix - 10.0

After you request a controlled end of a data group, the Work with Data Group display appears. Do the following:

1. From the Work with Data Group display appears. Type an 8 (Display status) next to the data group you ended and press Enter.

2. The Data Group Status display appears. In the Target Statistics section near the middle of the display, the Unprocessed Entry Count column should be blank for any database apply processes and any object apply processes. If unprocessed entries exist when you end the data group and perform a switch, you may lose these entries when the data group is started following the switch.

   Note: To ensure that you are aware of any possible pending or delayed activity entries, enter the WRKDGACTE STATUS(*ACTIVE) command. Any activities that are still in progress will be listed. Ensure that all activities are completed.

3. Ensure that there are no open commit cycles.The next attempt to start the data group will fail if open commit cycles exist and either the start request specified to clear pending entries (CLRPND(*YES)) or the commit mode specified in the data group definition changed. (Certain process, such as performing a hardware upgrade with a disk image change, enabling a disabled data group, converting to or from multithreaded database apply processing, converting to MIMIX Dynamic Apply, or changing target constraint management configuration, require a clear pending start.) To verify commit cycles, do the following:

   1. Press F8 (Database) to view the Data Group Detail Status display.

   2. For each apply session listed, verify that the value shown in the Open Commit column at the right side of the display is *NO.

   3. If open commit cycles exist, restart the data group. You must take action to resolve the open commit cycles, such as ending or quiescing the application or closing the commit cycle. Then repeat the controlled end again.
