Well, as well as you want to run with data replication on in your normal production site, you want to run with replication on in your DR situation when production transaction are modifying data. Just reverse the replication when starting up the DR site. And reverse replication again after

Willy-nilly is about notification and opportunity for preparation. For example, management declares a surprise DR drill on a Saturday morning. So the techs execute their well-rehearsed swap-over plan and begin running production at the DR site. Real live transactions with actual customer data.

When you say scratch pool do you mean remove from HSM entirely or do you mean mark as available to HSM? Whichever you decide, you can set the ISMF report to a dataset and write a REXX to parse it and generate DELVOL commands. > -Original Message- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On

Several years ago, the HSM tapes were migrated from 3490 to 3590. At that time, two 3490 tapes were unreadable so the systems programmer just skipped the recycle and went on to the next tape. So, now I have 2 3490 tapes still in my CDS and I want to remove them. These tapes were created back
