OPSVIEW Utilities Option › How to Create a Backup Copy of Your Global Variables (Option 7.5) › Fields on the Backup Globals Panel

Fields on the Backup Globals Panel

The following fields appear on the Backup Globals panel:

Data Set Name

Specify the name of the data set that is the target for the backup copy. If you enter a fully qualified data set name, enclose it in single quotes. If you omit the quotes, CA OPS/MVS uses your TSO user ID as a prefix for the data set name. The target for the backup copy can be either a sequential data set or the member of a PDS.

Note: If the target is the member of a PDS, the member name will be the name of the stem that you specify in the Global Variable Stem field. If you do not specify a value for the Global Variable Stem field, the member name will be GLVBKUP.

Global Variable Stem

If you want to create a backup copy of only those global variables with a particular stem, specify the name of the stem. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
