Task 2: Determining tasks to restore objects to an independent auxiliary storage pool

If you are performing a full system recovery, you need to perform this task for each independent auxiliary storage pool (ASP).

Your restore process will be most efficient if you restore independent ASPs and their contents in the order that they were saved. Independent ASPs are saved alphabetically. Secondary ASPs are saved along with their primary.

Table 1. Example of restore order for independent ASPs saved with GO SAVE: Option 21 or 23
Restore order Independent ASP name Independent ASP type What is restored Command
1 Apples Primary Libraries RSTLIB SAVLIB (*ALLUSR)
Cantaloupe Secondary
2 Apples Primary User-defined file systems RST OBJ(('/DEV/ iasp-name'))
Cantaloupe Secondary
3 Bananas UDFS User-defined file systems RST OBJ(('/DEV/ iasp-name'))
  1. Use Table 2 to determine how to recover the objects in your independent ASP.
    It shows the recovery tasks you must perform, based on the contents of the independent ASP you are recovering.
  2. If you have different types of objects to recover, such as libraries and documents, perform the tasks in the order shown in the table.
