Creating or Updating Backup Job Template Files

To create a backup job template file, use the BCREATE/template command on the Manage Job Templates screen. Enter bcreate/template on the command line, where template is the name of the backup job template file you want to create.

To update an existing backup job template file, use the UPDATE command on the Manage Job Templates screen. Enter update in the Command column next to the backup job template file you want to update.

In response to either command, the first Work with Backup Template template screen appears. Use these screens to specify the following information:

• Descriptive comment
• Type of backup job
• Catalog guidelines
• Output guidelines
• Guidance on how to detect changes from one backup to the next
• Report guidelines
• Select guidelines
• Tape guidelines
• Input guidelines
