DUMP CLASS NAME field (UTILS_DUMP_CLASS_NAME subsystem parameter)
A system-level backup can occur from a dump on tape or from a disk copy. For backups that occur from the dump on tape, the UTILS_DUMP_CLASS_NAME subsystem parameter specifies the name of the DFSMShsm dump class that is to be used.
| Acceptable values: | blank or a valid DFSMShsm dump class name not exceeding 8 characters in length |
|---|---|
| Default: | blank |
| Update: | option 36 on panel DSNTIPB |

This dump class is to be used by the RECOVER utility and the RESTORE SYSTEM utility to restore objects from a system-level backup that has been dumped to tape. The setting for this field is applicable only when you specify YES in the RESTORE/RECOVER field on panel DSNTIP6. You can override the setting for DUMP CLASS NAME by executing the RESTORE SYSTEM utility statement or the RECOVER utility statement with the DUMPCLASS keyword.
