Need some information on U11RMS

HI,

I think u all know about U11RMS,which takes care of deleting datsets and allocating correct GDGs in a Job.

Normally U11RMS will be executed with TYPRUN=P

Say, A Job abends

Then while restarting it,the U11RMS will be executed with TYPRUN=R(Restart mode) and the output datasets and GDGs which has been created in the first run will be deleted in the restarted job.

My problem is,

I dont want the restarted job to delete my output GDGs.

Is there any way to retain those datasets?

Actually,I have one dataset which will be created when the job abends.I am having the reason for the abend in this dataset(GDG version)

But when the job was restarted U11RMS is deleting that GDG version.

I tried with DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE) and DISP=(NEW,CATLG,KEEP)

but there is no difference.

My final question,

Is there any way to retain that GDG version even after restarting the job with U11RMS TYPRUN=R ?

I cant restart the job with TYPRUN=F,

If it is restarted then TYPRUN will be R

As of now I am renaming the GDG,

Can I get some other solution?

Is there any thing to do with DISP?

TYPRUN=F means a "Fresh run", as if there was no logical previous run today..it's not a restart. I didn't get what do You want to convey when You say..

Its a live system and we cant live our options or parameter for the jobs.

Whenever a job is restarted then the TYPRUN is R only.

That is what I meant by 'I cant restart the job with TYPRUN=F'

Did u get the condition?

I want to know is there anything to do with DISP? or
Can anything be done in the job without touching U11RMS parameters?

(Note:I cant change anything in the job if it is abended (As it is live),just some other team will restart the job.I am searching for a solution to enhance the job and to retain the deleted dataset.)

If something works with DISP then we will inform the customer and if they are fine with the changes then we can implement it.

In Your first post You say that if JOB get abended then on restart it deletes the previous GDG. Well, as far as I know U11RMS does not delete any GDG on restart instead it treats the new GDG (generation) as the current generation, which might have already been updated by some program, which might lead to wrong outputs in re-run (restart). I'm sure it's not the answer You are searching for, however, we can not play with DISP for this problem I think.
