FDRABRP JCL Examples

All examples in this section are found in the JCL library installed with FDR. The member names are EX5310x.

The following examples illustrate the most common ways of executing ABR REPORT functions. Note that, for convenience, all STEPLIB/JOBLIB DD statements have been omitted in the examples; they may be required, depending on your installation's placement of ABR.

ISPF dialog support

Most of these reports are available under the ABR ISPF dialogs, on the FDRABR REPORT PANEL (ISPF option A.1).

ABR Catalog Report Example

Produce a report detailing all backup activity that has been recorded in the ABR catalog. The report consists of information pertaining to the DASD volume dumped, type, and date of backup and information pertaining to the tape used for the dump function.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    CATLG
/*

ABR scratch report example

Produce a report detailing all data sets that have been scratched or renamed and recorded in the ABR scratch catalog. The report consists of information pertaining to the DASD volume and type of device that the data set existed on, and the backup tape file and volumes where the data was stored. The current backup information and old backups, if any, is displayed.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    SCRATCH,XREF,OLDBACKUP=ALL
/*

Summary by index example

Produce a report detailing the utilization of DASD space by USERID (highest-level index). The number of data sets owned by each ID, the tracks occupied and the types of data sets by organization are detailed. Aging statistics by last reference date are also printed.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRSUM   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    VTOC,SUMPFX=ALL,ONLINE,DETAIL=NO
/*

Tape VTOC report example

Produce a report detailing information from the control records at beginning of a backup data set. The report is displayed in ascending data set name sequence for each “TAPExxxx” DD statement. An IDCAMS LISTCAT format report is produced for all ICF VSAM clusters on the backup.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//VSAMPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//TAPE0001 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=FDRABR.VMVSRS1.C1001000
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    TVTOC
/*

Archive report example

Produce a report detailing all data sets that have been archived by ABR. The report consists of information pertaining to the DASD volume from which the data sets were archived and the date they were archived. In addition, certain data set attributes and information pertaining to the tape used for the dump function are displayed. The ARCHIVE DD Statement points to the Archive Control File. Since SORT=YES is the default in batch, to display information in data set name order, SORT DD statements may be required.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//ARCHIVE DD DSN=FDRABR.ARCHIVE,DISP=SHR
//SORTLIB DD DSN=SYS1.SORTLIB,DISP=SHR
//SORTWK01 DD SPACE=(TRK,50,,CONTIG),UNIT=SYSALLDA
//SORTWK02 DD SPACE=(TRK,50,,CONTIG),UNIT=SYSALLDA
//SORTWK03 DD SPACE=(TRK,50,,CONTIG),UNIT=SYSALLDA
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    ARCHIVE
/*

Archive report by date example

Produce a report detailing all data sets that have been archived by ABR on a given date. The Archive Control File whose name is in the FDR Global Options are dynamically allocated. SORT=NO is specified so that the data sets are not sorted by name; they are displayed in the order they were archived.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    ARCHIVE,SORT=NO,ADATE=1995.140
/*

Archive expiration prediction example

Produce a report detailing all archived data sets that expire in the next 15 days. EXPIRE=YES limits the report to expired data sets but XDAYS=15 includes data sets that expire within 15 days as well.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    ARCHIVE,SORT=NO,EXPIRE=YES,XDAYS=15
/*

VTOC report example

Produce a report detailing information of the volumes referenced by the VOL parameter. The report is displayed in ascending data set name sequence for each volume specified.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    VTOC,VOL=(PACK01,PACK02)
/*

Backup report example

Produce a report detailing information for all data sets in the VTOCs of the volumes referenced by DISKxxxx DD Statement(s), in addition to information related to the most current backup tape on which the data was stored. The report is displayed in ascending data set name sequence for each volume specified.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//DISK1    DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=PACK01,DISP=SHR
//DISK2    DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=PACK02,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    BACKUP
/*

Combined VTOC report example

Produce a report detailing information on all data sets in the VTOCs of all volumes referenced by the VOL parameter. The report is displayed in ascending data set name sequence for all volumes specified. Since COMBINE implies sorting, SORT DD statements may be required.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTLIB DD DSN=SYS1.SORTLIB,DISP=SHR
//SORTWK01 DD SPACE=(TRK,50,,CONTIG),UNIT=SYSALLDA
//SORTWK02 DD SPACE=(TRK,50,,CONTIG),UNIT=SYSALLDA
//SORTWK03 DD SPACE=(TRK,50,,CONTIG),UNIT=SYSALLDA
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    VTOC,COMBINE,VOL=(PACK01,PACK02)
/*

ABR volume report example

Produce a report detailing the ABR status of all DASD volumes online to the system.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT    VOLSTAT
/*

Multiple reports example

Produce an Archive Report, a Catalog Report, and a Volume Status Report in a single job step. The Archive Report shows the archived data sets in the reverse order of archival (the most recently archived data sets appear first), and only include information for data sets that were archived from volumes PACK01 and PACK02. The Catalog Report only includes information for backups of volumes PACK01 and PACK02.

//PRINT    EXEC PGM=FDRABRP,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP   DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//ARCHIVE DD DSN=FDRABR.ARCHIVE,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD *
PRINT ARCHIVE,SORT=NO,VOL=(PACK01,PACK02)
PRINT CATLG,VOL=(PACK01,PACK02)
PRINT VOLSTAT,VOL=(PACK01,PACK02)
