File Selection Screen Information

CA VM:Backup displays the following information on the file selection screen:

filename filetype

These columns list the filename and filetype of every file backed up, or one of these special file descriptors:

** No Detail **

Names of individual files on this minidisk or directory are not available to be displayed because the catalog has only domain-level detail. If you select this descriptor, CA VM:Backup asks you to specify the names of the files you want to restore. For instructions on specifying such files, see Restoring CMS Files With No Detail Information.

** Non-CMS **

This minidisk was backed up in physical format. For instructions on restoring from a physical backup, see Restoring From a Physical Backup.

** CMS Alloc **

This minidisk was backed up in CMSALLOC format. For instructions on restoring from a CMSALLOC backup, see Restoring From a CMSALLOC Backup.

** Encrypted **

This minidisk was encrypted when it was backed up. For instructions on restoring from an encrypted backup, see Restoring From an Encrypted Backup.

** Recomped **

This minidisk was formatted with the RECOMP option of the CMS FORMAT command. For instructions on restoring data from a minidisk whose size has been recomputed, see Restoring a Recomputed Minidisk.

Vaddr

This column lists the virtual address of the minidisk or directory reference number of the directory from which the data was backed up. To see the fully-qualified directory name, move the cursor to the Req column and press PF5 (Seename). CA VM:Backup displays the fully-qualified directory name at the top of the screen.

Last Revised

This column specifies the date and time the file was created or last edited.

Records

This column specifies the number of records in the file.

Backup Date/Time

This column specifies the date and time the data was backed up.

Att

This column contains attributes assigned to the file by CA VM:Backup when it was backed up. CA VM:Backup displays an M in the Att column if an SFS file was in migrated status when it was backed up. When a file is migrated, the SFS catalog contains information about the file, but the file's data no longer resides in SFS. If you select to restore this file, CA VM:Backup restores the file in migrated status (that is, restores the information about the file). You must then recall the data using the appropriate product (such as DFSMS).
