Recovering a data set or partition
You can use the RECOVER utility to recover individual partitions and data sets. The phases for data set recovery are the same as for table space recovery.
About this task

Restriction: RECOVER does not support recovery of the following data sets and
partitions:
- A single data set for nonpartitioned secondary indexes
- A logical partition of a nonpartitioned secondary index
Procedure

Use a LISTDEF list with PARTLEVEL n or use the RECOVER DSNUM
n option.
