General considerations for using DBRC

DBRC has several considerations to be aware of during it's use.

Be aware of the following considerations when using DBRC:

• DBRC does not support main storage databases (MSDBs).
• DBRC plays no role in the processing of GSAM databases, so there is no reason to register them.
• Logging is required for batch jobs that use DBRC and have update access.
• Never update the RECON data set information (such as for DBDSs or log data sets) about a data set that is currently in use.
• Be sure to set the time-of-day (TOD) clock value in the host processors accurately, or unpredictable results might occur in the RECON data set.
