Components of the Test Auto-Restore Hook Interface

The Test Auto-Restore Hook Interface consists of the following components:

TSTHOOKS member in the INSTALL library (Hook customization job)

This job creates the Test Auto-Restore Hook. This job copies the production hook modules to test names and then ZAPs them so that they use the test job name and test Auto-Restore PROC. Run this job even if you just want to use the default options.

TSTAR member in the PROC library (Test Auto-Restore PROC)

This PROC is the same as the DMSAR PROC, except that Test Auto-Restore has modified it for use. This PROC is started by the Test Auto-Restore hook in order to perform a test Auto-Restore.

TSTEXMPT member in the INSTALL library (Hook exempt job)

This job refreshes the production Auto-Restore Hook to begin excluding the job/task name , the DD statement name or both based on the value specified for sysparms ARDDNEXC and ARJOBEXC.

TSTINSTL member in the INSTALL library (Hook install job)

This job dynamically installs the Test Auto-Restore Hook and begins to accept auto-restores from the job/task name, DD statement name, or both based on the value specified for sysparms ARDDNEXC and ARJOBEXC. You do not need to IPL the system to install this hook.

TSTSTATS member in the INSTALL library (Hook status display job)

This job displays the status of the CA Disk Auto-Restore operating system hook on the system console.

TSTREMOV member in the INSTALL library (Hook remove job)

This job dynamically removes the Test Auto-Restore Hook from your system. You do not need to IPL your system to remove this hook.
