Creating separate jobs for restart

The ARMSBSRR macro separates the jobs contained in the ARMBSRR-generated JCL into distinct PDS members.

It uses the default prefix of JOB for the member names it creates. All Phase 1 jobs are placed into member JOBPH1. If Phase 2 consists of only one job, the ARMSBSRR macro creates only one member for Phase 2: JOB001. If Phase 2 consists of multiple jobs, the Phase 2 jobs are placed into n + 1 members using sequential numbering. JOB000 is the Phase 2 restart job used to reset the synchronization file and monitor job completion, and JOB001 - JOB00n are the separate Phase 2 recovery jobs generated for Db2 catalog and directory recovery.

Before you begin

To use the ARMSBSRR macro, you must copy the ARMSBSRR member from the RMGR.CLIST library to a library in your SYSPROC concatenation.

To create separate jobs for restart

  1. Copy the ARMBSRR-generated JCL into a member in a PDS library.
  2. Get into ISPF EDIT mode on the PDS member you just created.

  3. Type ARMSBSRR prefix on the command line, where prefix is an optional 1 to 5 character prefix to use for the member name. If you do not specify prefix, ARMSBSRR creates members with a prefix of JOB.

    Warning

    Important

    Be aware of the following information:

    • Member prefixPH1 contains the Phase 1 job(s). Members prefix000 - prefix00 n contain the Phase 2 jobs.
    • When ARMSBSRR completes, it CANCELs out of ISPF EDIT mode, leaving the BMC AMI Recovery Manager-generated JCL intact.
