Building BMC AMI Recover jobs

Building a job for the BMC AMI Recover product involves creating a set of JCL that includes:

• A JOB statement (JOB statement)

• An EXEC statement with the appropriate utility parameters (EXEC statement and Utility parameters on the EXEC statement)

• STEPLIB or JOBLIB DD statements as needed (STEPLIB DD or JOBLIB statements)

• DD statements as needed for the data sets needed for the recovery (BMC AMI Recover data sets and BMC AMI Recover DD statements to Determining unloaded keys file space requirements)

• BMC AMI Recover statements using the appropriate command syntax (Specifying BMC AMI Recover syntax)

A simple example of an BMC AMI Recover job is illustrated in the following figure. For more examples of BMC AMI Recover jobs, see Examples of BMC AMI Recover jobs.
