4.3.4.4.21 HISTM Command

Use the HISTM command to explicitly request CA MICS monthly
history archive processing.

HISTM generates and submits a batch job to perform monthly
history archive processing of the MONTHS timespan for the
specified units.

The HISTM command is only available for a unit that has
specified ARCHIVE HISTM YES JOB in prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF).
If monthly history archive processing is executed in the
MONTH300 step of the MONTHLY job rather than as a standalone
job, a message is issued to that effect and no job is
displayed.

No backup processing is performed with the HISTM generated
batch job.

HISTM also saves a copy of the generated history archive job
in the prefix.MICS.RESTART.CNTL data set for the unit
database.
