Recovery Volume Summary Report (QP1A2RCY)

The Recovery Volume Summary report is produced as part of the maintenance (STRMNTBRM) activity or by running the STRRCYBRM command. The report provides a list of all tape volumes that are required to complete a full system recovery to the latest backup point, all duplicate volumes for the volumes that are required for recovery, encryption information for items that were encrypted to these volumes, and volume identifier information for volumes with 32 character volume identifiers. Use this report with the Recovery Analysis report to locate all volumes or duplicate volumes that are required for recovery. Slot information is included (where used) to allow easy retrieval of the volumes.

The following should be noted about this report:
  • The total number of volumes that are required for a complete system recovery is shown as a final summary.
  • You can use the Volume summary order (VOLSUMORD) parameter on the STRRCYBRM command to indicate whether to sort the volumes by name (*VOLNAME), as they appear on the BRMS Recovery Report (QP1ARCY) (*RCYRPT), or by creation date (*VOLCRTDAT).
