Choosing interactive or batch generation

You can choose to generate recovery JCL interactively by using the BMC AMI Recovery Manager online interface or in batch by using the BMC AMI Recovery Manager program ARMBGEN:

  • The interactive method allows you to specify recovery points, specify recovery options at the group level and revalidate the recoverability of the current group. BMC AMI Recovery Manager generates the JCL based on your choices. Apart from providing a job statement for the generated recovery job, you are not required to code any JCL. This method might require a lengthy TSO session. For more information, see Generating-recovery-JCL-interactively.

  • The batch generation method enables you to use the online interface to create JCL, which you can execute to produce a recovery job. This approach requires only a short TSO session, but you cannot change the values of recovery options, which are those in effect for the target group when the ARMBGEN recovery job executes. For more information, see Generating-recovery-JCL-in-batch.
