DFSMSdss logical dump - at the primary site

  1. Define and load VSAM spheres.
  2. Create a DFSMSdss logical dump of the VSAM spheres. Be sure the dump job includes the CICSVRBACKUP keyword and the CICS® VR address space is active when the job is submitted.
  3. Update the VSAM spheres with CICS applications, batch applications, or both.
  4. Perform LOGOFLOGS SCAN. Create log stream copies of the MVS™ log streams that contain the log records.
  5. Perform RCDS EXPORT and specify the BACKUP keyword on the RCDS EXPORT command.
  6. Send the following to the remote site:
    • DFSMSdss logical dump
    • Log stream copies
    • Sequential data set that contains the exported RCDS
At the remote site:
  1. Catalog the DFSMSdss logical dump, log stream copies, and sequential data set that contains the exported RCDS.
  2. Perform RCDS IMPORT.
  3. Call the CICS VR panel interface and select the appropriate DFSMSdss logical dump from the VSAM sphere parameters secondary window. Specify QSAM copy as log stream type. Submit the recovery job that CICS VR creates. The job restores the VSAM spheres from the selected logical backup and forward recover the restored VSAM spheres.
