Building disaster recovery jobs

After you define a disaster recovery profile, you must build from the profile a series of jobs that can be used to restore an IMS system at the remote site.

1. On the Disaster Recovery Profile Display panel, specify B on the Cmd line next to the profile you want to build, and press Enter.

                    Build Job for PDMONA.KMONA                
    BSY$DOBD                                                                
       Edit Generated Job     Y           (Yes/No)                          
                                                                            
       Build job in Data set   PDMONA.BSY.JCLLIB                             
                    Member    SAMPLE8                                       
                                                                            
       Job Cards:                                                           
    ==> //OBJREST JOB PDMONA,CLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID                         
    ==> //*                                                                 
    ==> //*                                                                 
    ==> //*                                                                 
                                                                            
       Press ENTER to process or PF3 to Cancel                              
   

2. On the Build Job panel, specify information in the following fields:

   Edit Generated Job

   Specify Y if you want to edit the job after it has been generated. The job is displayed in an edit session after it has been generated. If you specify N, the Disaster Recovery Profile Display panel reopens after job generation.

   Build job in Data set

   Specify the fully qualified data set name (without quotes) where you want to save the generated job. This data set must already exist.

   Note: Multiple systems' disaster recovery jobs can be generated to the same PDS. The IMS system or group name prefixes all recovery job members.

   Member

   If the data set to hold the generated job is a PDS, then specify a member name for the job output. If the member does not exist, then IMS Recovery Expert will create it.

   Job Cards

   Specify a valid job card for your site.

3. When you are finished, press Enter.

   BSY$DBBD                                                               
      When the job is executed, it will build control cards and JCL       
      that must be taken to the Disaster Recovery site.                   
                                                                          
      Please specify a dataset where you would like these to be placed.   
      Build jobs in Dataset  RSQA.BSY220.ICA2.GENJCL                      
                                                                          
      Please specify a prefix to be used for system recovery jobs.        
      Jobname Prefix  BORIS                                               
                                                                          
      Jobcard data for generated jobs for remote site:                    
   ==> //DRIDA22  JOB CSTSUK,CLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID                       
   ==> //*                                                                
   ==> //*                                                                
   ==> //*                                                                
   

   On the Build Job panel, specify the recovery PDS data set name to hold the utility job that will be generated by the job. You must also specify a valid job card to be included in the disaster recovery jobs.

4. Press Enter to process the job.
