The Archive/Restore Program (CAKSARCH)

The CAKSARCH program is a multi-purpose program that performs specific CA PMA table maintenance functions. Table maintenance functions include:

• archiving tables or backing up definition tables
• restoring definition tables
• committing the DEVELOPMENT version of CA PMA definition tables so that these definitions can be used in processing
• copying committed definitions to the DEVELOPMENT version so that modifications can be made via the online facility

Note: All maintenance functions can be performed with a single execution of the program. When multiple maintenance functions are executed in this manner, table maintenance control statements are executed in the order they are specified.

The CAJRPROC member CAKSARES runs the program CAKSARCH. You must customize the CAKSARES PROC and either copy it to your system or user PROCLIB or use it instream within each of the JCL members.

Note: The Archive/Restore program's sole purpose is to archive specific tables used in CA PMA processing. It is not intended to replace full database backups or restores.

The next page contains a sample of the CAKSARES PROC, followed by a discussion that outlines each of the table maintenance functions by JCL member name contained in the CAJRJCL library.
