causes the control subvolume files both on the primary and backup systems to be purged before
initialization.
• If used in an interactive mode (either as a command from RDFCOM or in an OBEY file )
without "!" operator, RDFCOM displays:
RDFCOM will purge all the files in the control subvolume
(of both local & remote systems) if present.
Do you wish to proceed? [Y/N]
Processing continues based on User Reply.
• This operator cannot be used inside an IN file without "!".
Where Issued
Primary system only.
Security Restrictions
You can issue the INITIALIZE RDF command if you are a member of the super ID group.
RDF State Requirement
You can issue the INITIALIZE RDF command only when RDF is stopped and no files exist in the RDF
control subvolumes on either the primary and backup systems.
Usage Guidelines
If your RDF subsystem is running and you do not include the TIMESTAMP, INITTIME, or
SYNCHDBTIME options in the INITIALIZE RDF command, then you must stop, delete, and reconfigure
TMF before entering the INITIALIZE RDF command.
Before issuing the INITIALIZE RDF command within an existing RDF configuration, you must first
purge all files from the control subvolume on both the primary and backup systems or you must
use the # option that authorizes RDFCOM to purge all of the files.
