-
On the Recovery Utility Options panel, specify information in one or more
of the following fields:
- GENJCL member name
- Specify a skeleton member name to use for recovery JCL generation.Note: If you have selected INITONLY by specifying 4 in the Recovery Type field on the System Recovery Options panel, this field will be changed to RECOV GENJCL member name.
- INIT GENJCL member name
- This field will appear only if you have selected INITONLY by specifying 4
in the Recovery Type field on the System Recovery
Options panel. Specifying information in this field is required if you have selected
INITONLY. Error BSYR957 will be displayed if it is left unspecified.
The default for the INIT GENJCL member name field can be specified in the BSY#PARM or BSY#SSID SAMPLIB members using:
GENJCL_USER_INITO_MEM DEMOINIT -\* Skeleton member name for *\ -\* initonly with USER utility*\
- Delete/Define PDS DSN
- Specify the name of a PDS data set that contains IDCAMS statements. These statements are used to delete and redefine the data sets being recovered before running the recovery utility.
- Include indexes in recovery list
- Specify whether you want indexes that are associated with the databases being recovered to be included in the recovery list for the recovery utility. If you specify Y, then a GENJCL.USER GENTYPE=DATASE GENPHAS=SYSIN will be made for each index. If you specify N, then these calls are not made. For example, if you are using the IMS Database Recovery Facility for recovery, it has the ability to perform integrated index rebuild of associated indexes. To do this, the indexes are not included in the recovery list but instead, the associated IB() control statements need to be specified to drive index rebuild.
- Datasets for GENJCL
- Displays the concatenation of data sets for GENJCL member selection.
