Performing implementation tasks

To use RUV, you must start the RUV subsystem. If you are using the CICS Backup-While-Open (BWO) feature, you must define the relevant CICS resources as described below. You do not need to define CICS resources if you are not using CICS and use the RUV Batch Journalling Facility (BJF).

The following table lists the requirements and tasks for customizing and completing RUV implementation:

Task	Reference
RUV subsystems
Starting BMCP and BCSS subsystems¹ Note This task allows RUV, BWO, and BJF to function properly.	Starting-BMCP-and-BCSS-subsystems

¹ Required ² Required only if you will be using BWO ³ Required if you must recover CICS VSAM files (if BWO is implemented, the CICS file definition must have browse and update attributes) ⁴ Required only if you must initialize and enable batch journaling
