Issue/Introduction
The client would like to have a 74-million line report indexed, in CA View, where each line can be indexed.
Environment
Release : 14.0
Component : CA View
Resolution
The client defined a logical view containing page indexing criteria.
The client then ran SARBCH /INDEX against the report, and the job abended with a S878 condition, due to running out of REGION.
In this instance, the client had a 1 million page report, where 60 lines of each report was to be indexed.
The formula for the needed amount of REGION was defined as:
. (Length of field indexed on + 24) x (# of lines/page to be indexed) x (# of pages to be indexed)
. . (10 + 24) x (60 lns/pg) x (1,000,000 pgs) = 2040M REGION (> 2G) <=== This is what caused the S878 abend, as less was allocated.
Indexing with a report segment, with fewer lines, was possible:
. . (10 + 24) x (60 lns/pg) x (50,000 pgs) = 102M REGION <=== This amount of REGION was available for use.
Once a View logical view and index criteria are defined, reports with the name of the logical view will be indexed as they are collected by View.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this instance, for resolution, the client is having the report created in smaller segments (50-60,000 pages), so that the indexing can be done.
Note:
Here it is a SARBCH /INDEX job that received the S878 condition.
If the logical view is implemented, the next application job that creates a report that will use that indexing, will abend with a S878 condition, if not enough REGION is allocated.
The client deleted the report, recreated the report (in segments), had View collect the report, and the indexing was done without abends.
