You can specify criteria that identifies a set of resource definition
changes, such as changes within a specified time period by a particular
user, and then either undo or redo those changes in a single step.
Here, "undo" means to recover the before images of a set of changes,
and "redo" means to recover the after images.
To recover the before or after images of a set of changes:
- Select primary menu option 4.3 CICS changes.
- Specify the criteria of the changes that you want to undo or redo.
- Type REC next to each of the
changes that you want to select for recovery, and then press Enter.
Tip: To select all of the changes that match the criteria you
specified, enter REC * on the command
line, and then press Enter again.
Restriction: - All of the changes that you select must be for the same CICSĀ® configuration. You cannot
mix changes for multiple CICS configurations
in a single recovery action.
- You cannot recover changes
to CICSPlex SM relationships, such as Add and Remove (that is, changes
to xxxINGRP resource definition types). However,
you can recover changes to the resource definition types List, ResGroup,
and ResDesc.
- Specify whether you want to recover the before images of (undo)
or the after images of (redo) the selected changes.
Note: Recovering the after image of a deletion,
or the before image of a creation, deletes the current resource definition,
if it exists.
