reallocation

Attribute Defining Item/BASIC: Syntax, Releases: AP

References attribute 13 of the current item.

Description

used to resize a file when it is restored.


Before the file is saved, the new modulo is placed into attribute 13 of a file-defining item. During an account-restore or full file restore, (see :files) the file will be restored at the new size. If a file is too small, updating attribute 13 and account-save, delete-account then account-restore will cause the system to allocate more frames in the primary space for the file.

Parentheses must enclose the reallocation number.

Example

ct dict employees employees

employees
001 D
002 6165
003 31
004
005
006
007
008
009 L
010
011
012
013 (97)

Notice that the file has a modulo of 31 frames and during the next
account-restore the modulo will be reallocated to 97 frames.
