Unlocking a FailSafe Database (Resilience - FailSafe) (m646722+unlocking.htm)
Unlocking a FailSafe Database
Notes:
- This procedure must be carried out on the primary database.
- This procedure would normally be used after a database has been shutdown by using Miscellaneous menu option 3.
This procedure allows you to start up a FailSafe pair by unlocking the primary and allowing users to log on.
Procedure
- Select option 4 on the Miscellaneous menu.
-
A message is then displayed describing the purpose of the procedure and prompting you to confirm that you wish to continue. Enter y to start up the database — the following procedure is executed automatically:
- A pre-startup Proc called PRESTARTUP is run on the primary. The contents of this Proc are intended to be entirely site-specific, but typically it starts processes which must be run before users can log on, such as application integrity checkers. PRESTARTUP is in the SYSPROG-PL file.
- The primary database is unlocked, allowing users to log on.
- A post-startup Proc called STARTUP is run on the primary. The contents of this Proc are intended to be entirely site-specific, but typically it will start processes to perform other initialisation procedures such as, starting TIPHs and Despoolers. STARTUP is in the SYSPROG-PL file.
