Issue/Introduction

To resolve a problem in Datacom 15.1 active upgrade job BDACTDD2 we were asked to perform the HOLD ACTION of PTF RO98231 which is a DDUPDATE DELETE of AREA UNIVERSAL and DATABASE UNIVERSAL.  

After running a successful delete , the UNIVERSAL FILE/RECORD and FIELDS are all gone. 

Environment

Release : 15.1

Component : DATACOM DATADICTIONARY

Cause

FILE/RECORD  UNIVERSAL is connected to AREA UNIVERSAL.

Resolution

1.Restore the Datacom 14.0 backup.

-USR DATACOM-INSTALL,NEWUSER
-DEF PATH,STANDARD
-END
-RPT START,DATABASE,UNIVERSAL(T000),STANDARD
-RPT INDENTED
-END 

3.If the report shows FILE UNIVERSAL, RECORD UNIVERSAL, and all the UNIVERSAL FIELDS  then go to step 4.

   If not, then go to step 5.
