Re: DFHSM QUESTION - RELEASE BACKUP COMMAND

John,

What is the value of 'DATA SET BACKUP=NOT HELD' when you Q AC?
If it is NOT Held then releasing it won't accomplish much. If it is =HELD, then by all means issue the Release commands.

David,

I saw in the manual the following commands :
RELEASE BACKUP(DSCOMMAND)
RELEASE BACKUP(DSCOMMAND(TAPE))

Would that just release my backup and not the automatic backup?

If you release backup during the backup window then yes, Incremental Backup will commence.
Issue setsys command to set start stop times for automatic backup to 0000, run your test then when ready re-set your backup window.

Subject: DFHSM QUESTION - RELEASE BACKUP COMMAND

G'Day,

I am testing a new BCDS and I just want to test the HBACK 'MY DSN' command. I am holding all DFHSM functions when I bring up the DFHSM region. If I issue the HSEND RELEASE BACKUP, would it release all the backup functions (including CDS backup)? Is there a way of just releasing the backup function so as to do a backup of my pds?

Thanks.
