FDRTSEL Control Statements

FDRTSEL accepts three primary control statements. These statements cannot be repeated. Each statement can only appear once within a given execution of FDRTSEL.

COPY

MOVE

Specifies FDRTCOPY output processing options. MOVE also causes input DASD files to be scratched.

SELECT

Selects ABR files to be processed.

CONTROL

Specifies additional FDRTSEL options. Can be used to indicate simulation mode. The CONTROL statement is optional.

SELECT Statement

The SELECT statement identifies backup data sets to be copied or moved in ONLY ONE of three modes:

SELECT ARCHIVE is used to copy or move whole archive backup data sets. The SELECT ARCHIVE statement invokes FDRABRP to generate a list of backup data sets to be processed. All FDRABRP options available to PRINT ARCHIVE are honored by the SELECT ARCHIVE statement.

SELECT ARCEDIT is identical to the SELECT ARCHIVE statement with one major difference. With SELECT ARCEDIT, only the specifically requested individual data sets from the selected backup file get copied.

SELECT CATLG is used to copy ABR full-volume and incremental backup files. This statement creates a backup selection list by processing the ABR catalog.
