So the answer to my question above is NO, for the reasons you specified  (only 
the FRBACKUP/FRRECOV/FRDELETE commands operate against copy pools). And I 
certainly have no desire to give an end user access to those commands from 
within the "P" selection, not to mention make them storage admins to even see 
that option.

We are using copy pools for DB2, or at least the DB2 sysprogs are testing the 
functionality. My question related to the second usage: recovering a dataset 
from an offline, full-volume copy *without* the involvement of a storage admin. 
Our end users are already familiar with the dataset panels and the 3.4 line 
command option.

Thanks for responding,

Bob

Hi,

There are many large clients who use DFSMShsm copy pools to backup their DB2 
systems.  Some also use it to create offline, full-volume copies of other 
volumes.  Only the FRBACKUP/FRRECOV/FRDELETE commands operate against copy 
pools.  FRRECOV does have a data set recovery option.  I recommend referring to 
the following Redbook: DFSMShsm Fast Replication Technical Guide.

DFSMShsm Copy Pools

2017-10-31 Thread Richards, Robert B.
Hello all,

Is anyone exploiting DFSMShsm Copy Pools?

If so, can an end user use the standard ISMF DATASET panels to perform 
HRECOVERs from them?   Or HRECOVER from 3.4?

Bob
