Hi,

I believe RECON dataset will hold the log information in IMS and DBRC is an utlity that runs in IMS environment used to take backup of IMS database.

Can any one tell me the relationship between RECON dataset and DBRC.
what is DBRC?

If u have any weblink having details for the same,plz send it.

regards,
Nagu.

Thanks murali.

how to register the database in DBRC?Is its a one time process?
when will the registraion of the database in DBRC will be done?
will the registration is done each time when we ran a BMP job?

Could you please give me an idea about RECON dataset?
what is a subsystem id in IMS? Is its same as IMSID?

Thanks,
Nagu

Once again I point at the sticky with a usefull link. This time I just typed DBRC and yes.........information came up. And what a surprise after searching for recon.

My advice to members reacting on a topic: if the information can easily be found in the documents (via the links in the stickies) show a TS the way to do so........ What is the use of just copying a few lines and post them when there is so much more to learn about a subject

Comprehensing is much more valuable than reading oneliners without detailed explanation......

It's also about education

What is "sticky"?

Look at the index of topics within any part of the forum and look to the left hand side.

Anything you touch after eating an icecream cone and before you wash your hands.

If you click on the forum name, you'll see a list of posts. The ones at the top are "sticky", meaning they'll always be visible on that first page of the forum.

I highly recommend that anyone who wants to understand DBRC and RECON datasets, read Peter Armstrong's excellent book, DBRC in Practice. It is free from BMC Software.
