command is in error and nothing is done.
Frequency of Use
How frequency you should use these utilities depend on system
usage. It may be advantageous to make checkpoints more often
when FileServ database activity is heavy. Such activity
includes:
• Addition or deletion of many migration directories.
i List class ids.
k List class indices.
K Retrieve record by class index.
m Modify a record. Modifying a record requires a
specific key that corresponds to the record to be
modified Once the record is found, any field can
be modified including key fields. Modifying a key
field can result in a duplicate key for the table. In
such cases, the modification will fail.
q Query a table. Each table has different fields that
are used for queries. There is no specific field that
each table is queried on. Some queries allow for a
sub menu, while other table queries have several
fields that can be queried.
r Record count.
S Set output destination.
v View all records.
