ICTYPE=A specifies Type-A Image Copy; ICTYPE=B specifies Type-B Image Copy.

If IC=YES is specified, the default value of ICTYPE is determined based on the following rules:

  • For a non-HALDB database that has no logical relationship or a HALDB database, ICTYPE=A is assumed.
  • For an HDAM or HIDAM database that has internal logical relationships, ICTYPE=B is assumed. In this case, you must specify PREFIXRES=YES.

For information about databases supported by each processing type, see Considerations for Image Copy processing. For information about unsupported databases, see Smart Reorg restrictions and requirements.
