The registered time can be displayed with IDCAMS LISTCAT in SMSDATA BWO TIMESTAMP or RLSDATA RECOVERY TIMESTAMP, depending on the type of backup specified. This registered time is after the STARTTIME. Integrity is maintained, but unnecessary I/O occurs before this STARTTIME is reached. For recovery of a data set restored from a backup-while-open copy, do not specify STARTTIME, because CICS® VR decides this automatically for you.
CICS VR continues with the recovery.
