Explanation
CICS® VR has interrogated the
backup-while-open (BWO)
flags in the ICF catalog for
data set
dddd, and has determined that the value
of
vvv should not prevent recovery from continuing.
These details and descriptions of acceptable BWO flag settings assume
that you are recovering to the backup of the
data set, and
not to the native
data set as left
by CICS:
100, 110 |
The data set is back
level. It is restored from a DFSMSdss physical dump, made
when the data set is
eligible for BWO, either when it is open in CICS,
or after CICS had shut down in an uncontrolled manner
when the data set is
still open. |
011 |
This BWO flag setting will only produce the
warning message if you are running CICS VR
forward recovery. The data set is back
level, and is restored from a DFSMSdss physical dump, made
after the this series of events: - The data set is
eligible for BWO processing.
- A control-interval or control-area split occurred and completed.
- CICS closed
the file.
|
For recovery, the
data set is considered
to be restored from a non-BWO backup.
Note: CICS VR cannot detect whether updates are in
progress, and if splits occurred during a DFSMSdss physical
dump. Only the DFSMSdss logical dump function is sensitive
to the BWO flag settings and thus automatically preserves data integrity.
System action
CICS VR continues with the recovery
run.
User response
- Batch–Although recovery is performed, investigate why
the BWO flags had these settings, before allowing the data set to
be returned to CICS.
- Online–Although recovery is performed, investigate why
the BWO flags had these settings, before allowing the data set to
be returned to CICS.
