Comments

You use the :RESTART statement to set restart points in an executable object. Restart points allow you to start an executable object from a particular position. You can define them when you execute objects with options.

The Restart Text can be used to describe the restart point. This description is written to the execution protocol as additional information. Restart Text is an optional parameter.

Note that script handling in restarts depends on the script statement :GENERATE. If you do not use this script statement, all script lines are processed until the very first :RESTART statement and additionally all lines are processed that are positioned after the indicated restart point.

The script functions SYS_LAST_RESTART_POINT and SYS_LAST_RESTART_TEXT can be used to read the restart point that has last been passed including its restart text.

Examples

The following example defines a restart point and a Restart Text.

:RESTART REORG,"Start Reorganization"
