    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    ORF fails to reorganize an empty HALDB partition when it is
    running with the HD Unload utility, because the HD Unload ends
    with return code 4 in this case.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A new parameter is added to the runtime option to accept return
    code 4 from HD Unload.
