Task 5: Preparing system resources

This topic describes the steps that are necessary to prepare to recover system resources for a disaster recovery.

You can perform these steps either manually or online (recommended). If you use the online method, you can generate all necessary JCL either separately for each step or together in a single job stream.


Before you begin

Determine the method you want to use to establish the recovery point.

To prepare system resources

The following steps are necessary when you prepare the system resources for a disaster recovery:

  1. Set the options required to establish a recovery point (see Establishing-a-recovery-point-and-creating-an-archive-log.

  2. Set the options required to create copies of the archive log (see Creating-an-archive-log-copy-job).

    Important

    Even if you do not take archive log copies that are generated by BMC AMI Recovery Manager offsite, this step is necessary to obtain information that enables BMC AMI Recovery Manager to analyze stacked tapes correctly for system resources recovery.

  3. Set the options required to recover system resources (see Creating-a-system-resource-recovery-job-ARMBSRR).
  4. Generate JCL for the preceding steps, either as individual jobs or as a single job stream.

  5. You can optionally generate JCL for a simulated or estimated recovery at this time. You must have both BMC AMI Recovery Manager and BMC AMI Recover to generate simulation JCL. You must have the Recovery Management for Db2 solution to generate estimation JCL. For more information about estimation, see the Recovery Management for Db2 documentation .

  6. Run the JCL that you generated.
