the failed execution.    No special actions need to be taken prior to re-starting 
the failed row restore job.   
Clean-up processing 
Following successful execution of the row restore utility, the storage used in 
the Archive Manager database for rows which have been restored to DB2 will 
no longer be accessible, and will be eligible for re-use.   However, this space 
cannot be re-used until the Archive Manager object holding a restored row 
has been deleted from the Archive Manager database. 
As multiple migrated rows may be held in each Archive Manager object, it is 
not possible to delete the object until all migrated rows held therein have 
been invalidated (either due to being restored to DB2, or to the row being 
deleted from the DB2 table). 
DB2 Manager provides a database housekeeping utility to perform cross-
reference processing between a DB2 table and its associated Archive 
Manager database, and to delete Archive Manager objects which no longer 
contain active migrated rows.   Standard Archive Manager object 
management and database maintenance processing can then be performed 
to allow re-use of index storage and tape and/or disk copy storage used for 
objects which have been restored.   Refer to “Archive Manager database 
maintenance” on page 114 for a description of Archive Manager database 
housekeeping processing requirements. 
 
OTDBP130 - the pre-fetch utility 
OTDBP130 is the DB2 Manager pre-fetch utility program.   The program is 
executed as a batch job in order to pre-fetch Archive Manager objects 
containing migrated rows from tape to disk storage within the Archive 
Manager database.   After pre-fetching, the objects containing the selected 
rows will be accessed from disk instead of from tape, improving performance 
for access to migrated rows.   Note that pre-fetching rows using this utility will 
not affect the migration status of the rows - these will remain in Archive 
Manager storage, and are not restored to the originating DB2 table.    The 
row restore utility OTDBP120 should be used if it is required to return 
migrated rows to DB2 storage.   
The rows to be pre-fetched by Archive Manager are identified by the 
customer via search criteria in an SQL command, in an identical manner to 
the way in which rows are identified for selection for migration by OTDBP100.   
Execution of the program is controlled via a series of execution parameters. 
A print report is issued by the utility giving details of the execution 
parameters, the pre-fetch selection criteria and detailed and/or summary 
information about the rows pre-fetched by Archive Manager. 
Disk copies of pre-fetched objects are retained by Archive Manager for the 
period of time specified in the database definition.  Pre-fetched objects will be 
deleted by the Archive Manager object management utility following
