is set to False for this event.
Effect
The recovery process abends.
In the case of volume recovery, the process is not restarted. The affected data volume
is flagged as needing recovery and is disabled for transaction processing.
In the case of backout or file recovery, the TMF management process (TMP) restarts
the process. If the error was transitory, the recovery operation continues to
completion. If the error persists, the recovery process abends again and is restarted.
The restart attempts occur at successively longer time intervals.
Recommended Action
If the audit read exception is ZTMF-VAL-ARExcp-Format2File or ZTMF-VAL-ARExcp-
Format2Rec, the current version of TMF supports only Format 1 audit trail files but the
recovery process encountered a Format 2 file or record. You should do either of the
following:
Delete TMF (which deletes all audit trail files, including the Format 2 file or record),
and restart the current version of TMF.
Upgrade to the G08V01 or a later version of the software, and retry the recovery.
For all other audit read exceptions, this is a serious event. If a data volume is disabled,
its unavailability could degrade the performance of one or more applications. If either
backout or file recovery is retried many times, audit-trail files could get pinned on the
disk, causing the audit trail to reach the overflow threshold.
