Hi,
I have 2 PDS A and B.Both A and B contains a member with name Mem1 with same code.I changed the Mem1 in A.But accidently while doing something I copied the Mem1 in B(without changes) to PDS A.So the Mem1 in A got replaced with Mem1 in B(with no changes).Is there any way to recover the Mem1 in A where I made changes ?
Thanks,
Paul |

My initial guess would be NO
Was this all done on the same day, or some work done on a previous day where you may have an overnight backup of any changes made up to that point. |

Unless you specifically took your own backups during the edit process - NO. |

There are utilities to recover members in a PDS (not PDSe!). If the library has not been compressed, the data still exists but has no 'pointer' to it.
You can probably find something on the CBT tape Use [URL] BBCode for External Links such as 'PDS' on file 182. |

You can try following command:
HLIST DATASET('xx.xxxx.xxxxx') BCDS which gives you different versions of back ups taken by the system(If it has the back-ups)
Then you can recover the version of your PDS by giving following command:
HRECOVER 'xx.xxxx.xxxxx' newname('xx.xxx.xxxxx.xxx') gen(0)
gen can be 0, 1, 2 etc depending upon version. |

As Bill said there is no problem recovering a member that has been deleted as long as the library has not been compressed. try doin a search with google using the following keywords. revive pds gas kimu This will give you hit on the CBT tape . I have used this utility in times of need with great success |

If the member was a pgm and you copiled/assembled it, you could use the listing to recover your changes. It'll take some work, but it can be done. |

I have rebuild complete source libraries from xpeditor ddio files - use print option, then parse the listing with a rexx (or by hand if you only have a few).
would be the same process that mmwife suggested, incase you don't save your listings (I have worked at many sites that did not have a panvelet or endevor at the development level - only pds's) |
