Opened DCB Passed to Checkpoint z/OS DFSMSdfp Checkpoint/Restart SC23-6862-00 |
|
If your program has a DCB and opens the checkpoint data set for
output, the checkpoint routine writes a checkpoint entry at the data
set's current position and does not close the data set. A user-opened
checkpoint data set does not have to be closed after taking the last
checkpoint for the job step. All the checkpoint entries are saved
in this case, without specifying DISP=MOD. This provides the ability
to request a deferred restart from any of the checkpoints.
The DCB is left open when checkpoint returns to the user. The open checkpoint data set is closed by step termination. |
