Member Level Archive

A subset of a partitioned data set can be designated by specifying a list of one or more of its members or member alias names. Associated member and alias names are always maintained, regardless of which are specified in the list.

Note: While only the specified members are processed, the entire data set will be deleted. If this particular DSNINDEX record is restored, only the members residing in this index record are recovered. Members residing in the partitioned data set prior to the ARCHIVE will not exist in the data set after RESTORE.

A member level archive is requested by adding the MEMBER= parameter to the ARCHIVE command. For details, see the section MEMBER in the chapter "Reports."
