Down Chunk
Posted in 1998

Is there a way to drop a down chunk from a dbspace which has only
one chunk? The down chunk is a cooked file which has been
removed from the file system. When I tried to drop the
dbspace which contains only one chunk, onmonitor returns
with an error (ISAM error: Unexpected internal error). I have also
tried to drop the dbspace using onspaces,
but onspaces does not allow you to drop a chunk which comprises an
entire dbspace (as is in this situation).
I do not have a backup to recover to and this down chunk prevents
making backups of the database using ontape.
Any suggestions?
