Good Day To All,

I have great news.  I found the missing dsn and the volser from the 
HSM.JOURNAL.BACKUP.V0009984 file.  Thanks to all who helped with their

 Just because you
 delete a data set if it has backups they might still be
 there. Try allocating the old DSN as empty and restore from
 a backup. I have done that before.

Re: DFHSM QUESTION - RECOVER DSN FROM ML2 VOLUME

2016-06-20 Thread Greg Shirey
In the z/OS 1.13 DFSMShsm Storage Admin manual, there is a page titled:   

1.20.9 Case 9: Reestablish access to previously deleted migrated data sets (no 
backup exists, ML2 only)

Here is a link: 

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/dgt2s6a2/1.20.9?SHELF=ALL13BE9=20120808094757

Back when I worked at a shop that had HSM, I had to use this procedure several 
times.  I would assume it is still valid.   
Note, however, that the last step reads: 

" If you follow all steps correctly and you are still unable to recall the data 
set, contact IBM Support."

If the problem is the dataset was just plain deleted and there is no longer a

recovery.

DFHSM will have nothing available to you.  If there is anything left in DFHSM,

2016-06-20 Thread Lizette Koehler
So I will use an infamous phrase here:  Open an SR with IBM before you do 
anything else.

Sometimes they have tools that can help you or at least provide guidance that 
this list may not be privy to.

Next, you need to know what volume the dataset resided on.
If you do full volume dumps - weekly, monthly or daily - you might have a 
chance to find the dataset.

DFHSM only knows what it knows.  If you did a physical delete and not removed 
the catalog entry, then you should see a LISTC or 3.4 entry for 

Data_set_Deleted_Name MIGRAT

If the problem is the dataset was just plain deleted and there is no longer a 
catalog entry, you need to find a full volume or other DR volume backup for 
recovery.

DFHSM will have nothing available to you.  If there is anything left in DFHSM, 
then either a product like VANTAGE with the DFHSM function included could help. 
 Otherwise contact IBM.


Please explain further what is the specific events and issues.  

Otherwise, open an SR with IBM quick.

Depending on how desperate you are to recover the data:
If you don't delay and
(1) you act before the physical tape that contained the ML2 data set is
recycled or physically scratched,
(2) you save recent backups of the production DFHSM control data sets
made from before the ML2 data set was deleted, and
(3) you have access to an isolated test z/OS system which has access to
tape drives and on which you can bring up a test DFHSM;

then it should be possible to

ON THE TEST z/OS SYSTEM:
Port the old DFHSM data sets to the test system and bring up DFHSM on
those old data sets with everything HELD except for recall;
optionally set up an isolated user catalog and alias for the lost data set;
catalog (with IDCAMS) the lost data set to VOLSER MIGRAT;
set up any ACS definitions and/or storage pools needed to support a
recall of the data set (this doesn't need to replicate the production
environment as long as the STORCLAS of  the data sets maps to a pool
with adequate space -- don't know if MGMTCLAS and DATACLAS have to be
defined on test system for recall to work);
HRECALL the data set to the test storage pool;
Use dss to make a tape backup of the data set that can be ported back to
production;

ON THE PRODUCTION SYSTEM:
Read and restore the data set from  tape written on test z/OS using dss
on the production system;

ON THE TEST z/OS SYSTEM:
Clean up the no-longer-needed stuff created on the test z/OS system.

This is potentially a lot of work and may require some experimentation
to get all the pieces right.. I'm pretty sure I actually did this once
or twice; but it took the better part of a day and was a long time ago.

If the dataset was *DELETED* you will have a tough time.

If the dataset was uncataloged, 

DEF NVSAM(name('dsn') DEVT() VOL(MIGRAT)

And then recall the dataset.


I cannot issue the HRECALL because the dsn doesn't exist.  The same reason I 
cannot issue the HRECOVER because there is no backup.

 Why are you looking in
 the JOURNAL?  It contains only "recent" data
 since the last CDS backup.  How long ago was the dataset
 migrated?  To find the DSN, you need to look in the backup
 copy that covers the time frame when the migration
 occurred.  But if you need to look up anything about the
 dataset, you really should be looking in the MCDS.
 
 Why do you think you need to
 know the ML2 volume?  ML2 datasets are catalogued on
 MIGRAT2.  Does the DSN show up in 3.4?
 What
 happens if you issue an HRECALL against the DSN?  If the

Why not just HRECALL the dataset?

Of course, if the migrated copy  is the damaged dataset, and there are no 
backups, you are out of luck.




I would like to recover a dsn which was migrated to ML2.  Because of a mistake 
in the assigning of the management class no back up was taken.

I remember recovering a dsn under the same circumstances.  I remember locating 
the dsn in the HSM.JOURNAL.BACKUP.V000 (found in column 13 in HEX) and the 
volser of the ML2. (which  I found in column 77) 

I browsed the online HSM.JOURNAL (using the first and second HLQ)  however I 
was unable to locate the dsn.  My question is do I need to wait for the CDS 
Journal backup to be run (which will execute tonight at 8 p.m) or is there 
something else I can try?

Re: DFHSM QUESTION - RECOVER DSN FROM ML2 VOLUME

2016-06-20 Thread Lizette Koehler
If your first statement is No BACKUP has been taken, then the file is most 
likely lost.

When was the file migrated?

Can you show us the results from a HLIST dsn(/) BOTH 

It will help to know when it was migrated.

CDS Backups and Journals can be performed anytime.  You just have to know what 
kind of performance impact will be felt while it is running

DFHSM QUESTION - RECOVER DSN FROM ML2 VOLUME

2016-06-20 Thread willie bunter
Good Day To All,

I would like to recover a dsn which was migrated to ML2.  Because of a mistake 
in the assigning of the management class no back up was taken.

I remember recovering a dsn under the same circumstances.  I remember locating 
the dsn in the HSM.JOURNAL.BACKUP.V000 (found in column 13 in HEX) and the 
volser of the ML2. (which  I found in column 77) 

I browsed the online HSM.JOURNAL (using the first and second HLQ)  however I 
was unable to locate the dsn.  My question is do I need to wait for the CDS 
Journal backup to be run (which will execute tonight at 8 p.m) or is there 
something else I can try?

Thanks.
