Use the DISKWAIT record to specify how long CA VM:Backup is to wait for a disk operator to mount a DASD volume CA VM:Backup has requested. You can also specify in this record that CA VM:Backup is to send reminder messages at regular intervals during the wait period.
DISKWAIT wait [reminder]
Important! If the wait time expires before the disk operator mounts the volume, CA VM:Backup skips all minidisks on that volume. In the job detail report, CA VM:Backup lists skipped minidisks and indicates why each was skipped.
Specifies the number of minutes CA VM:Backup is to wait for the disk operator to mount a DASD volume after the request is made. The wait time must be a one-to four-digit integer between 0 and 9999. If you specify 0 for the wait time, CA VM:Backup issues no messages to the operator and skips all minidisks on the DASD volume.
Specifies the number of minutes CA VM:Backup is to wait between issuing reminder messages to the disk operator to mount the DASD volume. This value is optional; however, if you specify a reminder interval, you must also specify a wait time. The reminder time must be a one-to four-digit integer between 1 and 9999 that is less than or equal to the wait time. If the wait time is 0, CA VM:Backup automatically sets the reminder time to 0.
You can include only one DISKWAIT record in the VMBACKUP CONFIG file. The default is DISKWAIT 15 5.
