Example: Running multiple RCLLNK commands to quickly reclaim all objects in the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and mounted user-defined file systems

 

In this situation, as part of routine system maintenance, all objects in the "root" (/), QOpenSys, and mounted user-defined file systems are reclaimed. You want to finish the reclaim operation as quickly as possible to allow for additional system maintenance to be completed.

By breaking the reclaim operation into separate groups, multiple RCLLNK commands can be performed concurrently to allow the reclaim operation to finish sooner.

To run multiple reclaim operations against key system directories and other top-level directories, use the following commands (each in a separate job or thread).

RCLLNK OBJ('/') SUBTREE(*DIR)
RCLLNK OBJ('/tmp') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/home') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/etc') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/usr') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/QIBM') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/QOpenSys') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/IaspName') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/dev') SUBTREE(*ALL)
RCLLNK OBJ('/OtherTopLevelDirectories') SUBTREE(*ALL)

where OtherTopLevelDirectories are other directories that you want to reclaim.
