There was a CICS FCT/File definition attribute known as Backup While
Open (BWO). I've forgotten the details but you may want to investigate
it. I think it will allow what you are trying to do. As far as the HSM
failures to backup the file, there is probably something (messages) in
the HSM logs.

As a developer I've come to rely on using HSM to restore prior day's data
from production files where we don't take an explicit daily backup (as it's un-
needed for normal business processing). Some of these files are files that
are open to CICS. I find that HSM backs them up on some days but not on
other days. Is there a specific cause of this behavior? The file (one
particular
one, but there are others) is open to CICS and being updated constantly
throughout the day.
Thanks,
Frank
