RE: Damaged objects after hard fall

["Pete Massiello" <pmassiello-ml@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can do a DSPOBJD *ALL/*ALL *ALL to an outfile and then run a query
looking for objects that are damaged.  Some times this bit isn't set, and
trying to Save the objects always works better (but not easy to save when
people have locks on the objects while they are using them), as those
objects that are damaged will fail to be saved.

When the system can be put into a restricted state, I would run a RCLSTG.

Subject: Damaged objects after hard fall

Hi all.

Yesterday a cable came loose at the data center that hosts our System i
(iSeries 81) server. The server went down hard. After it came back up, a
damaged object kept item verification from working properly. This
morning, users are reporting other bizarre behavior on our system. With
our System i administrator out for several weeks, is there anything a
programmer can do to identify damaged objects while users are doing
their normal work?

Thanks in advance,
Roger Mackie
