TurboIMAGE/XL versus TurboIMAGE/V
Overview
retrievals, and sorted sequential searches on any database that is enabled for
third-party indexing.
• A logical transaction bracketed by DBXBEGIN and DBXEND can be dynamically rolled
back. This dynamic transaction can be of 1 to 15 databases.
• A data set can be a jumbo set exceeding 4 gigabytes.
• B-tree indices on key items of master data sets allow generic and range searches on key
items of master sets as well as corresponding detail data set search items.
• Databases can be stored, even when they are open for read/write access, using
TurboSTORE/iX 7x24 True Online Backup (with ONLINE=START or ONLINE=END
option). Their related files, such as TC file and third-party index files, are stored along
with the databases.
• DBRECOV can perform a roll-forward recovery for a database stored using
TurboSTORE/iX 7x24 True Online Backup (with ONLINE=START or ONLINE=END
option).
• Data sets, master as well as detail, can be dynamically expanded during DBPUT.
The rest of this appendix discusses the major differences in detail. They include the
following:
• Intrinsic Level Recovery
• Control Blocks
• Status Area
• Moving from MPE/iX to MPE V
TurboIMAGE/XL differences are summarized in Table H-1.
Moving to TurboIMAGE/XL
To move a database from MPE V to MPE/iX, you need to perform the following tasks:
1. Disable both ILR and roll-back recovery (use the >>DISABLE command of DBUTIL).
2. On MPE V, store the database with DBSTORE (or use the MPE V STORE command).
3. On MPE/iX, restore the database with DBRESTOR (or use the MPE/iX RESTORE
command).
