Archiving RPCV journals

You can convert the journals that were created by the BMC Software RECOVERY PLUS for CICS/VSAM (RPCV) product into a format that can be used with RUV. Any RPCV journals that you want to use with RUV must be processed by the ARCHIVE RPCV_IN command so that they are registered for recovery processing.

Using the ARCHIVE RPCV_IN command

Use the ARCHIVE RPCV_IN command, as shown in the following example, to convert an RPCV journal to RUV format and register it in the repository.

ARCHIVE RPCV_IN(RPCVJOUR)
    COMPLETE COPY
    ARCHIVE_OUT(RUVARCH1
        LOCATION(LOCAL)
        COMMENT('LOCAL RPCV JOURNAL / RUV ARCHIVE')
        STATUS(ACTIVE)
        MUST_COMPLETE(YES)
        )
    ARCHIVE_OUT(RUVARCH2
        LOCATION(REMOTE)
        COMMENT('REMOTE RPCV JOURNAL / RUV ARCHIVE')
        STATUS(INACTIVE)
        MUST_COMPLETE(NO)
        )
    ;

Using the RPCV_IN keyword

Use the required RPCV_IN keyword on the ARCHIVE RPCV_IN command to identify the input RPCV journal. Set the value to the ddname of the journal in the JCL or to the fully qualified data set name.

Using the COMPLETE_COPY keyword

Use the optional COMPLETE_COPY keyword on the ARCHIVE RPCV_IN command in the same way as you would use it on the ARCHIVE JOURNAL_IN command. For more information, see Using the COMPLETE_COPY Keyword.

Using Other keywords

Use the required ARCHIVE_OUT keyword and its related optional keywords on the ARCHIVE RPCV_IN command in the same manner as you would use them on the ARCHIVE ARCHIVE_IN command. For more information, see Using the ARCHIVE_OUT Keyword.

Coding ARCHIVE RPCV_IN statements

To code an ARCHIVE RPCV_IN statement, use the following syntax:

ARCHIVE RPCV_IN(ddn8_or_dsn44)
    { COMPLETE_COPY }
    ARCHIVE_OUT(ddn8
        { LOCATION(locname8) }
        { COMMENT('comment fields') }
        { STATUS(ACTIVE | INACTIVE) }
        { MUST_COMPLETE(YES | NO) }
        )
    { ARCHIVE_OUT(ddn8, ...) }
    ;
