About Restoring and Recovering

The CA Disk restore function allows you restore DA, PO, POE, PO2, PS, PSE, and ISAM data sets and OS catalogs without the need for preallocation. You can also restore VSAM clusters and ICF catalogs. In most cases, you can even restore to a device type other than that from which the data set was backed up or archived.

An individual data set or cluster is restored via the RESTORE command. A group of data sets and clusters, an entire volume, or a group of volumes, however, is restored via the RECOVER command.
