RECOVERY Command 1 (RECBASE)

The RECBASE command is optional for backward recovery and required for forward recovery. You can use it to specify an entire database or the specific table(s) for recovery. If you do not code a RECBASE command, the backward RECOVERY function dynamically opens tables as needed.
