Associating a Db2 object and an IMS job profile to the coordinated recovery profile

You must associate one Db2® object profile and one IMS job profile with the coordinated recovery profile.

About this task

The Db2 object profile that you associate with the coordinated recovery profile contains the information required to recover the Db2 objects that are used by the application. The IMS job profile that you associate with the coordinated recovery profile contains the information required to recover the IMS databases that are used by the application.

You can associate only one Db2 object profile and one IMS job profile with any coordinated recovery profile. Each Db2 object profile or IMS job profile that is already associated with a coordinated recovery profile is not listed for selection in the respective product object or job profile selection panels.

Procedure

  1. Access the Add Profiles to Coordinated Profile panel.

    The Add Profiles to Coordinated Profile panel opens automatically as the second step of creating a coordinated recovery profile. Otherwise, from the Update Coordinated Recovery Profile panel, specify A on the Cmd line next to a coordinated recovery profile, and press Enter.

  Add Db2 Profile _   (Yes/No)                                            
                                                                          
  Add IMS Profile _   (Yes/No)                                            
                                                                          
  Press Enter to process or PF3 to cancel.

  2. To associate a Db2 object profile with the coordinated recovery profile, specify Y in the Add Db2 profile field and press Enter. If you have already associated a Db2 object recovery profile to this coordinated recovery profile, then this field is not available.

    On the Enter Object Profile Selection Criteria panel:

    1. Specify the SSID location for the Db2 system where the objects reside.
    2. Use the Name like and Creator Like fields to filter the objects that are listed on the Object Selection panel. Press Enter.
    3. From the Object Profile Selection panel, select the Db2 object profile that you want to associate with the coordinated recovery profile. You can also create, delete, update, rename and view Db2 object profiles from this panel. Press Enter when you are finished.

      You can only add one type of profile at a time to the coordinated recovery profile. After you add a Db2 object profile, you will return to the Update Coordinated Recovery Profile panel.

      Refer to the IBM® Db2 Recovery Expert for z/OS® User's Guide for more information on how to perform these object profile functions.

  3. On the Add Profiles to Coordinated Profile panel, to associate an IMS job profile with the coordinated recovery profile, specify Y on the Add IMS profile field. If you have already added an IMS object recovery profile to this coordinated recovery profile, this field is not available. Press Enter.
    On the Enter Applications Profile Like to Display panel:
    1. Use the Profile Like, Creator Like and the SSID Like fields to filter the objects that are listed on the Job Profile Selection panel. Press Enter.
    2. On the Job Profile Selection panel, select the IMS job profile to associate with the coordinated recovery profile. You can also create, delete, update, rename and view IMS job profiles from this panel. Press Enter when you are finished. You can only add one type of profile at a time to the coordinated recovery profile. After you add an IMS job profile, you will return to the Update Coordinated Recovery Profile panel.
