RECOVERNEWNAMEALL and RECOVERNEWNAMELEVEL: Specifying a high-level qualifier for recovered data sets

Explanation: RECOVERNEWNAMEALL is an optional parameters that you use to specify a new high-level qualifier for recovered data sets.

RECOVERNEWNAMEALL(level): You use this parameter to rename all data sets that you want to recover with the high-level qualifier level option.

RECOVERNEWNAMELEVEL(olevel1,nlevel1, ...): You use this parameter to specify that all data sets having a high-level qualifier of olevelx are recovered with a new high-level qualifier of nlevelx. The maximum number of olevelx,nlevelx qualifier pairs is 30.
Note:
  1. The RECOVERNEWNAMEALL and RECOVERNEWNAMELEVEL parameters allow data sets to be renamed before verification checks for like-named conflicts. These rename parameters apply to data sets in the INCLUDE and ALLOCATE lists (except for ICF user catalogs in the ALLOCATE list), but do not apply to ACCOMPANY data sets. In addition, migrated source VSAM data sets may not be renamed. If a rename criterion applies to a migrated source VSAM data set, a message is issued and the data set is not renamed.
  2. If a rename criterion applies to a nonmigrated source VSAM data set, the new component names are not generated by ARECOVER processing but are generated by DFSMSdss if the data set name is from the INCLUDE list or by SMS VSAM allocation if the data set is from the ALLOCATE list.
  3. If RECOVERNEWNAMEALL is specified, a message indicates that all data sets will be renamed with the specified level. If RECOVERNEWNAMELEVEL is specified, a message lists the level pairs specified, indicating that each data set matching the old level will be renamed to the corresponding new level. Each data set meeting a rename criterion is recovered with the new name during data movement. Like-named conflicts created by the new name are evaluated during the conflict resolution process. See Aggregate backup and recovery support (ABARS) for more information about data set name conflict resolution.

Defaults: None.
