BMC AMI Copy syntax to create cabinet copies

To request cabinet copies, you use the STACK CABINET option on the OUTPUT statement.

For details of the STACK CABINET option, see OUTPUT-syntax-options. When you use STACK CABINET, all the spaces copied to that output descriptor are copied into a single data set.

Important

Because there is only one data set name for the entire cabinet file, use generic values for the DSNAME option in the OUTPUT statement. Avoid the use of the &DB or &TS substitution variables, although &DB might be appropriate if all copies are for the same database name.
