Validating the objects in an object set

The BMC AMI Recovery Manager for Db2 product performs object validation when you build an object set and prepare to generate backup or recovery JCL.

The type of validation depends largely on the method that you use to build the object set and the type of processing that you select.

BMC AMI Recovery Manager includes only objects with an acceptable status in the generated JCL. For more information on object statuses, see BMC-AMI-Recovery-Manager-object-exception-status

The types of validations that are performed by BMC AMI Recovery Manager on objects in an object set are as follows:

  • Verification that an object is available to Db2
  • Verification that an object is eligible for backup or recovery

  • Verification that a suitable image copy (or DFSMS concurrent copy) exists for the object

    All object validation is performed in the context of building an object set or revalidating recoverability, regardless of whether the task is performed interactively or in batch mode.
