So next time you are working on the CEC with the CF, you could use the RECONFIG to move the CKPT temporarily to DASD. Do what you need to do, then move it back.
You do not always need to fill in all CKPT dataset info - once moved, you can leave CKPT2 empty till you are ready to go back. I think that was the only step that was missing when you updated the CEC box where both of your CKPT datasets were located. All that was needed was moving CKPT1 to dasd, do the change, then move CKPT1 back to CF Lizette > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Carmen Vitullo > Sent: Friday, July 28, 2017 10:41 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: EXTERNAL: JES2 Checkpoint question > > That's good to know Jerry, thank you. > shutdown was normal and successful, the POR of the box and the fact I had > both checkpoints in the CF's (both CF's on the same CEC) cause me to loose > spool data, well and the fact I didn't have the luxury of time to research my > alternatives during that shutdown weekend. > thanks again for the sanity check, Much appreciated ! > > > Carmen > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Jerry Whitteridge" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Friday, July 28, 2017 11:32:06 AM > Subject: Re: EXTERNAL: JES2 Checkpoint question > > We run with CKPT1 in the CF and CKPT2 on DASD for DR recovery.
