The output displays “Re-running” which indicates that the utility is performing a restart . When
performing a restart and there are already rows in the DB2 table, rows committed should still equal
rows submitted to the load. The conversion program will determine the number of records alread y
loaded into the table, find the next consecutive SFS record to load, and conti nue counting until all
SFS records are converted properly and inserted into the DB2 table(s).
In order to accomplish a successful conversion, it is recommended that you do not run any programs
individually from the command line with the -f option. The -f option will only convert the specified
file. Using the -f option is undesirable when converting all cartridges in a system since using this
option only converts the specific cartridge file specified on the command line. The -f option is only
intended for debugging purposes and should only be used after consulting with your HPSS customer
support representative.
