Hi!
I have taken a backup of a set of DASDs using the following JCL
| Code: |
//DUMP EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//TAPE DD UNIT=T3590,VOL=SER=TAPE01,
// DSN=CBCACHE.CICS.NCP.BKUP(+1),DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
// DSNTYPE=LARGE,
// DCB=BLKSIZE=32760
//DASD1 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC017,DISP=SHR
//DASD2 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC018,DISP=SHR
//DASD3 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC019,DISP=SHR
//DASD4 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC020,DISP=SHR
//DASD5 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC021,DISP=SHR
//DASD6 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC056,DISP=SHR
//DASD7 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC057,DISP=SHR
//DASD8 DD UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=CBC058,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
DUMP DATASET -
(INC(CBCACHE.**) -
BY(DSORG EQ (PDS,PDSE,SAM,VSAM))) -
ALLD(*) -
ALLE PROCESS(SYS1) -
INDDNAME(DASD1,DASD2,DASD3,DASD4,DASD5,DASD6,DASD7,DASD8) -
OUTDDNAME(TAPE)

I am only able to restore the datasets using RESTORE DATASET command in ADRDSSU out of the above DUMP. But i want the flexiblity of restoring the all the datasets residing on certain volume if a volume fails, because in that case i would not know the what datasets were residing on the failed volume. |

That's the difference between logical and physical dumps for you.
Must admit that I prefer logical dumps, because if one volume goes tits up it is likely that it contained multi volume datasets, and if you restore just one volumes data in a multivol dataset you're just asking for trouble.
Also, talk to your storage people to see if there is a HSM dump and incremental backups available. |
