Recovery. Create the output file with a larger record size and then rerun the sort.

under the COLLATE Command on page 3-6.

Recovery. Clear the SUBSORT command and specify from 2 to 16 subsorts. Because

specify a maximum of 8 subsorts. The number of actual subsorts you can use depends
on your system configuration and load.
Cause. You specified an invalid segment size.
Recovery. Specify a segment size greater than 64 pages.
