Hi, Dan,
The answer appears to be in the help text for the command.  Prompt RGZPFM, press F1, then F2 for Extended help.  
It appears to depend on what you specify for RBDACCPTH.
Hope that helps,
Mark S. Waterbury

If RGZPFM with ALWCANCEL(*YES) is used on a file for which there are a lot of logical access paths/indexes, are the access paths/indexes updated on the fly, or are they ignored until the physical file reorg is completed?  The reason for asking is that if we need to cancel the reorg submitted with ALWCANCEL(*YES), will the job still need to spend time updating the access paths/indexes?  So, if we're given until 9:000am when the file must absolutely be available, can we cancel the job at 8:59am with the expectation that the file and its indexes will be ready and available to use?
