Normal Job Termination

When a backup runs to normal completion, CA VM:Backup:

  1. Detaches all minidisks, tape drives, virtual printers, and virtual punches used in the job
  2. If catalogs were created, updates the catalog index files, then closes them
  3. Updates the resource pools with current tape information
  4. If a keyword data report was created, closes the report
  5. Sends the local console and the job's system log two messages:
  6. Returns reports to the submitting user ID (if the job was an end user or special SFS or BFS restore request), or to the user ID specified under Report Guidelines or on the REPORT record in the job template
  7. If the job so specifies, issues the JOBEND command
  8. If the job so specifies, erases the backup job template, exception, and exclusion files
