Task 7: Generating application recovery JCL (ARMBGEN)

This procedure creates JCL that you can use to recover application resources at the recovery site.

Before you begin

Perform the following tasks:

  • Using the recovery object sets established in Task 1 (see Task-1-Creating-copies-of-business-applications), ensure the object set recovery options are set as follows:
    • If the volumes at the recovery site are not the same device type as those at the local site, select Allocate in kilobytes.

    • Set the value of Max concurrent jobs to a value not greater than the number of initiators you want to use for their recovery at your recovery site.

      Important

      If you are using SIMULATE YES, you cannot set a value greater than 1.

      For more information, see General-recovery-options.

    • If possible, limit the SYSCOPY search.
  • Generate JCL for ARMBGEN. Use the following options:
    • Use a recovery point of TORESTARTRBA.

    • Use SITETYPE to indicate whether local or recovery site copies will be used.

      Important

      If SITETYPE RECOVERY is selected, ARMBGEN will automatically set Delete STOGROUP Objects to Yes and set Redefine VCAT Objects to Yes.

For more information on ARMBGEN, see Generating-recovery-JCL-in-batch.

To create application recovery JCL

  1. Wait for the ARMBSRR job (or step) and optional ARMBGPV job to finish. (For more information, see Task-6-Revalidating-and-auditing-application-object-sets.)
  2. Run the JCL that you generated for ARMBGEN. Jobs can be run in parallel.
