Hi Nick,
We do use Concurrent-Copy for some of our backups; however we prefer to
backup the duplex copies for our major production application.
It gives us a point in time backup of our entire application. We break

If so, you can add the following command to your startup deck.

It would be easier than just a guess if you supplied the parameters that

Is it a physical or logical restore?
Are you using BYPASSACS
Are you specifying MGMTCLAS, NULLMGMTCLAS, STORCLAS or NULLSTORCLAS?
