Hello friends,
I want to take backup of an area (IDMS database). I can do so by writing a program wherein i'll sweep the whole area and write it to a file and later upload the databse from the file. My question is "Is there any utility in JCL thru which i can take the backup and upload the data of a particular area of a databse?"

Regards,
Gyana
