The optional noReorgRecovery argument enables you to disallow the creation of temporary backups (.bak files) of the original database files (.dat files) when a reorganization takes place. For details, see "
The default value for this parameter is false, which means that the temporary backup files are created.
When you set the value to true, temporary backup files are not created. With this setting, if a reorganization failed, you would need to restore the system from a backup taken before the reorganization.
The noReorgRecovery argument applies only to reorganizations that mutate objects or move objects instances between map files. It has no effect for file compaction and for re-indexing operations.
Your system will not be recoverable if the reorganization fails and you do not have a pre‑deployment backup.
Roll-forward recovery fails if this parameter is set to true and a reorganization that was aborted is replayed. Replay on an SDS secondary database fails if this argument is set to true and a reorganization that was aborted is replayed.
