ARPOSITION
audit-file-rba input
FIXED:value
specifies the relative byte address (offset) within the audit file to which the cursor is
being positioned. If the value specified is zero, the cursor is positioned at the
beginning of the audit file. If the value specified is -1, the cursor is positioned at
the end of the audit file. If this is a MERGE cursor, then this is the MAT rba.
aux-index input
INT:value
This input parameter is used only for MERGE cursors. It specifies the auxiliary
audit trail to position into. A zero value specifies the MAT audit trail.
aux-seqno input
INT(32):value
This input parameter is used only for MERGE cursors. It specifies the sequence
number to position to within the specified aux-index audit trail.
aux-rba input
FIXED:value
This input parameter is used only for MERGE cursors. It specifies the rba to
position to within the aux-index audit trail.
cursor-direction input, optional
INT:value
is a value indicating which direction the cursor will travel through the audit. The
values are:
If cursor-direction is omitted, forward is assumed.
When reading forward, ARREAD returns the next audit record that begins at or
after the specified rba. If the rba is the beginning of an audit record, that record is
returned; if the rba is not at the beginning of an audit record, the next audit record
is returned.

100: Rec 1
200: Rec 2
