Description

   The SET FILE/RU_FACILITY command allows you to identify the
   recoverable facility that controls active recovery units on the
   file. You can use any other SET FILE qualifier with the /RU_
   FACILITY qualifier.

   When a data file has active recovery units and RMS journaling
   cannot resolve the recovery units (for example, if the recovery
   unit journal is unavailable), the data file cannot be opened
   or deleted. The presence of active recovery units prevents you
   from unmarking (or marking) a file for any journaling type. With
   the SET FILE/RU_FACILITY/RU_ACTIVE command, you can clear the
   designated recoverable facility that controls active recovery
   units for the data file.

                                CAUTION

      When you clear the RU_FACILITY attribute (with the command
      SET FILE/RU_ACTIVE=0/RU_FACILITY=1), the data in the file is
      likely to be in an inconsistent state. Do not use the data
      file unless you can ensure that the data is consistent.
      After clearing the RU_ACTIVE attribute, you can unmark
      the file for journaling, delete the file, and re-create a
      consistent file using a backup copy.

   You can determine the recoverable facility that controls active
   recovery units (if any) for the file by entering the DCL command
   DIRECTORY/FULL or DUMP/HEADER. You can use the ANALYZE/RMS_
   FILE/RU_JOURNAL command to determine the state of any active
   recovery units.
