Hi Ken,

there is a service in ISPF which allows you to use the 3.3 copy option within a
REXX. This is called LMCOPY.
Assuming you would be able to create a flat file of the following format:

DS: <name of ds to be backed up> <name of the target ds>
mbrname1
mbrname2
...
mbrnameN

you could repeat the above block as many times as you like and store it into a
ds named (for example) INPUT.
Then a REXX could read this input an either copy it online (or in a second go
even create a BATCHJOB).
Because of another service named LMMLIST you could even specify the member names
in generic mode using * and % in the member name. Personally I would favour this
flat file input instead of an ISPF-Table, because it is much easier to maintain.
As an alternative you could prefix the execution of the copy process, by an EDIT
of the INPUT dataset, which could also be done automatically.

In case you do not imediately know, how to use the above services, there is a
ISPF Edit primary command: MODEL which, will lead you to a panel ISREMRXC, where
you could select the Option L0.

Or... you could ask me to provide you with an example :-) which of course I
would have to program first ;-) but still I think it should not take very long,
if you would agree not to have to many recovery routines :-)

Regards



Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Hi Peter,
The backups are currently done via ISPF 3.3. We copy members given
to us on a spreadsheet. Process: The Prod members are copied FROM
Hilev.*.parmlib: Hilev.*.parmcntl;hilev.*jcllib and sent TO BHILEV.*.* . Then
the STAGING member is copied from SHILVE.*.* to prod HILEV.*.* Its the
actual member being backed up for each project. So a specific member backup
would be ideal. I think i saw a SHARE project where a REXX exec is used.
The dataset is cut and paste along with a member into a field then REXX Exec
searches list of dsn's in a table that can be edited. The execution of the
EXEC copies member after searching the index.
Hope this helps. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Ken,

if you could give more details about your backup technique I might be able to
supply some information or example.
Whar does your input look like:
Would you like to backup some HLQ.* to BACKUP.* datasets? Would you like
complete backups. or on a specific member name basis?

You may contact me also on a direct basis.

Hi All,
Does anyone have any automation scripts, clists or JCL that work
with ISPW or Control-M on MVS? Is there a sampel website?
Also my company does a lot of backups to PDS MEMBERS in datasets.
I am looking for clists that can backup members to a set predefined
PDS datasets. (Backup, Source Target) Any rexx clist or sample jcl
will help.
There are a set of 100 datasets that we do daily MEMBER backup to.
I am looking for something like a rexx exec that can view the
production highlevel qualifier and retrieve the backup dataset, put the
members in, then copy from stag the same meber and place in production

Samples or webiste would be great. Thamks

Ken P.
