SITE TYPE field (SITETYP subsystem parameter)
The SITETYP subsystem parameter specifies whether the current system is at a local site or a recovery site.
| Acceptable values: | LOCALSITE, RECOVERYSITE |
|---|---|
| Default: | LOCALSITE |
| Update: | option 24 on panel DSNTIPB |
| DSNZPxxx: | DSN6SPRM SITETYP |
- LOCALSITE
- Specifies that the current system is at the site where the multiple image copies are made and are operational.
- RECOVERYSITE
- Specifies that the current system is at the site that is named as an alternative for recovery purposes.
The RECOVER utility uses this value to determine what site the current system is on. It then recovers everything from the copies of data that are registered at that site. The RECOVER and MERGECOPY utilities use this value to determine whether COPYDDN or RECOVERDDN is allowed with NEWCOPY NO.
