z/OS DFSMShsm Managing Your Own Data
SC23-6870-00

  1. You must specify DATE and TIME together and they are valid only with the DATA=BUVERS form of the macro. Otherwise, the macro fails.
  2. The ARCXTRCT DATA=BUVERS output can contain information for up to 100 backup versions. If there are more than 100 backup copies of the specified data set, DFSMShsm sets the BUVEFMAS flag in the last entry of the output. To obtain information on the additional backup copies, issue the request again and specify the DATE and TIME parameters. DFSMShsm returns up to 100 versions created before the specified date and time.
  3. If a return code of 4xx is returned and SNAPDCB is specified, a SNAP macro is issued and the request made to DFSMShsm is dumped. The dumped storage area will include the data set name, volume serial number, and function requested. DFSMShsm also dumps the extract buffer.
  4. If SNAPDCB and TEST=YES were specified, and there was an error flagged in the MWERC, then a SNAP macro is issued and the MWE is dumped.
