Recovering IMSRSC repository data sets when all IMS systems and an RM system are active in an IMSplex

You can recover IMSRSC repository data sets when all IMS systems and an RM system are active in an IMSplex.

Perform the following procedure:

Procedure

  1. Define new primary and secondary repository data sets for the repository that failed, by using the FRPBATCH UPDATE command.
  2. Start the repository by using the FRPBATCH START command or the F reposervername,ADMIN START command.
  3. List the repository by using the FRPBATCH LIST command or the F reposervername,ADMIN DISPLAY command.
  4. Write the resource definitions to the repository from each active IMS by using the IMS EXPORT command.
    • If your IMS systems are cloned, route the following command to one of the active IMS systems in the IMSplex and have it write its resource definitions to the repository for all of the IMS systems in the IMSplex.
      EXPORT DEFN TARGET(REPO) TYPE(ALL) NAME(*) SET(IMSID
      (IMSids_of_all_IMSs_sharing_repository))
    • If your IMS systems are not cloned, route the following command to each of the IMS systems in the IMSplex so that each IMS writes its own runtime definitions to the repository.
      EXPORT DEFN TARGET(REPO) TYPE(ALL) NAME(*)

      This command writes the runtime resource definitions from each IMS to the repository.

    IMS can continue processing while the repository data sets are being recovered.
