Archiving

DBRC automatically submits a job to archive the OLDS when:
  • IMS terminates
  • The OLDS fills and logging switches to an empty OLDS
  • You issue a /DBRECOVERY command without the NOFEOV keyword
  • You switch the OLDS manually.

See Operations and automation in IMS product documentation and Database utilities in IMS product documentation for guidance on implementing automatic archiving, and Operations and automation in IMS product documentation for the syntax of the /DBRECOVERY command. (You can also use the /DBRECOVERY command without the NOFEOV keyword to test your implementation.)
