 | IBM IMS Database Repair Facility can interactively, and in batch mode, repair VSAM and OSAM organized IMS databases that contain pointer or data errors. With the latest release of this tool, V1.2, you can view entire blocks of data or individual IMS segments and navigate to other segments while the "undo" capability tracks any and all changes that you make.
