recover files deleted from 3390 devices on a Shark?
All - Does anyone have a method or tool that can dump and map a 3390 disk pack? Or more particularly - does anyone know how to get a dataset (or datasets) back after it has been deleted (outside of restoring it from a tape copy which we can't do). We had a situation where a number of files were accidentally deleted from a series of volumes (3390s on a 2105 Shark). No additional updates have been made to any datasets that are currently on the packs. So, we are looking for any way possible to get the data back. Any ideas?

Re: recover files deleted from 3390 devices on a Shark?
Check the archives for an earlier thread about restoring deleted files from a disk. I posted a document about how we were able to do this several months ago. It is not fool-proof but it may work for you. DFDSS and AMASPZAP can print tracks from a DASD device //PRINT EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU REGION=2000K,PARM='SIZE=1000K' //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //IN1 DD DISP=SHR,UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=volser //OUT DD DUMMY //SYSIN DD * PRINT TRACKS (X'03CE',X'',X'03E6',X'000E') INDDNAME(IN1) // EXEC PGM=AMASPZAP //SYSLIB DD DISP=OLD,UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=volser, // DSN=somedsn //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * CCHHR000300 000302 ABSDUMPT ALL Good Luck! -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Todd Blandford Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008 9:21 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: recover files deleted from 3390 devices on a Shark?

Also, if this is a SMS managed pack you should disable it immediately! -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Todd Blandford Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008 9:21 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: recover files deleted from 3390 devices on a Shark?

Do you have any Backup tapes or HSM dumps/backups? Lizette Does anyone have a method or tool that can dump and map a 3390 disk pack?

snip We had a situation where a number of files were accidentally deleted from a series of volumes (3390s on a 2105 Shark). snip As mentioned previously, make sure that you stop allocation on the affected volumes. Once the space (zos image) is overwritten, the job becomes VERY difficult.
