The IOADLD utility is used to load the contents of an IOA Access Method file from a sequential file previously created by the IOADUL utility.
Note: All file-related activity of the relevant product must be stopped before this utility is run:
If the file being loaded is a Control-D file, all Control-D monitors must be down when running this utility.
If the file being loaded is an IOA file, all monitors must be down when running this utility.
The IOADLD utility cannot be run on Control-M/Analyzer files.
This utility is typically used to migrate an IOA Access Method file to another DASD volume. In this case, perform the following steps:
Run the IOADUL utility to unload the IOA Access Method file data component’s records to a sequential data set.
Allocate and format a new IOA Access Method file on a new DASD volume using the IOADBF utility.
Run the IOADLD utility to reload the IOA Access Method file data component records from the sequential data set previously produced by the IOADUL utility.
Run the appropriate index rebuilding utility to rebuild the IOA Access Method file index component, based on the contents of the data component:
For IOA databases, use the IOADBIB utility.
For Control-D, use the CTDDIB utility.
For the Control-V global index file, use the CTDGBIB utility.
For the Control-M/Tape media database, use the CTTBIX utility.
For the Control-M/Tape stacking database, use the CTTDBIB utility.
