Mike, That's an interesting position for SAG to take. That would also mean that ADABAS does not support restart after a power outage, MVS crash, or Database crash.
A Database that does not support Disk Based Remote Copy or Disk based Copies (Shadowimage, FlashCopy, Timefinder) or even a system crash is quite a surprise. Methinks it is a Database to avoid...
