VMS Help SCA, VERIFY, Qualifiers, /RECOVER  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

       /RECOVER
       /NORECOVER (D)

    Indicates whether SCA should repair a corrupted library.

    If the interrupted command was a LOAD command, SCA deletes from
    the library any module that had begun to load but that had
    not completed loading. Also, SCA cannot recover modules that
    were waiting to be processed for loading when the interruption
    occurred. To load interrupted and waiting modules, issue a
    subsequent LOAD command and include those modules.

    If the interrupted library operation was a DELETE MODULE command,
    the /RECOVER qualifier causes SCA to delete the incompletely
    deleted module. Any modules still waiting to be processed for
    deletion when the interruption occurred are excluded from the
    recovery operation; to delete them, you must respecify them in a
    subsequent DELETE MODULE command.
