Eric,
Don't know what happened to my first reply so will try again.
When you do a flash copy the target unit is invalidated so that it cannot
be brought online. FDR supplies a utility to restore it to the original
source volser if you really want to.
First to flash the volume to an offline volume
//FLASH EXEC PGM=FDRABR,REGION=0M,COND=(0,NE)
//TAPE1 DD DUMMY,LABEL=RETPD=15
//TAPE2 DD DUMMY,LABEL=RETPD=15
//SYSPRIN1 DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRIN2 DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
FCOPY TYPE=FDR,VERIFYVOLSER=NO,CONFMESS=NO
MOUNT VOL=DB2E49,FLASHUNIT=628B
/*
The to back up the flashed volume to tape
//STEP010 EXEC PGM=FDRABR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRIN1 DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRIN2 DD SYSOUT=*
//ABRMAP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=R,HOLD=YES
//TAPE1 DD DSN=FDRABR.PROD.DBE1001,
// DISP=(NEW,KEEP),
// UNIT=MAGTAPE,
// VOL=(,,,50)
//SYSIN DD *
DUMP TYPE=FDR,DSNENQ=NONE,PRINT=ABR,BUFNO=MAX,RTC=YES,
ENQERR=NO,TAPERRCD=NO,SELTERR=NO,RTC=YES,FCOPY=(USE,REL)
MOUNT VOL=DB2E*
/*
FDR also invokes flash copy when use use FDRCOPY to copy a data set.
Really fast!
Jerry
