Image Copy Stacking Process report

The Image Copy Stacking Process report contains information about the result of stacked image copy processing.

Stacking Process Summary section

The Stacking Process Summary section shows a list of STACK DD statements that are processed in the job step of IMS HP Image Copy. It also shows whether the tape volume on the STACK DD statement is to be replaced or not for the restart processing of the Checkpoint Restart function.

The following figure is an example of the Stacking Process Summary section.

 "#" INDICATES THAT THE DD CONTAINS IMAGE COPY DATA SET(S) WITCH HAVE ALREADY PROCESSED SUCCESSFULLY.
     PLEASE CHANGE TAPE VOLUME(S) WITH MARKED # PRIOR TO NEXT RESTART PROCESS. OTHERWISE, THE IMAGE COPY DATA SET(S) WILL BE
     OVERWRITTEN.

The report fields are as follows:

STACK DD NAME
The DD name for the STACK keyword where the image copies are stacked.
TO BE RESTARTED
This field indicates whether the stack DD is reprocessed or not by the Checkpoint Restart function.
PRIMARY/SECONDARY
This field indicates whether the stacked image copy data set is registered as a primary image copy or a secondary image copy.
PRIMARY
The stack DD is used for the primary image copy.
SECONDARY
The stack DD is used for the secondary image copy.
N/A is shown for the Create Image Copy function.
RELATED DD
A list of DD statements that are related to the DD statement.
If the DD statement is used for the primary image copy, DD statements for its secondary image copies are shown. If the DD statement is used for the secondary image copy, DD statement for its primary DD statement is shown.
The following figure shows an example of the ICEIN statements that are used for the STACK DD Report Summary section of Figure 1.

STACK DD Summary section

The STACK DD Summary section shows general information about the STACK DD. This section is provided for each of STACK DD statements processed.

The following figure is an example of the STACK DD Summary section.

     VOLUME INFORMATION FOR THIS DD
     ------------------------------
       UNIT     = 3490
       VOLSER   = TAPE01

The report fields are as follows:

DD NAME
The DD name on the STACK keyword, where the image copies are stacked.
UNIT
The unit name that is used for stacked image copy processing.
VOLSER
The volume serial name that is used for stacked image copy processing.

STACK DD Detail section

The STACK DD Detail section shows detail information about the STACK DD. This section is provided for each of the STACK DD statements processed.

When an IMS HP Image Copy job is run several times by the Checkpoint Restart function, the tape specified on the STACK DD statement will contain several image copies of databases. However, this section of the report lists only the databases that are processed in one job step, which means the list of databases provided in this section does not include all the databases that are stacked in the tape. If you want to see a complete list of the databases, you must use DITTO or see information about databases that are registered to DBRC.

The following figure is an example of the STACK DD Detail section.
