In the Restore Data to field, you can select one of the following options to specify where CA VM:Backup is to restore data:
CA VM:Backup restores data to the minidisks from which data was backed up. Data that is backed up in CMS format can be restored to a minidisk. Data that is backed up in physical format must be restored to a minidisk.
CA VM:Backup restores data to the virtual reader of the user ID owning the original minidisk. Only data that is backed up in CMS format can be restored to a virtual reader.
Important! Specify this option only when working with a template for a CATSEARCH restore job.
CA VM:Backup restores data to a DASD volume other than its original source volume.
CA VM:Backup creates an image of all or portions of another volume on this alternate volume. The alternate volume is attached to CA VM:Backup. The minidisk images are overlaid by obtaining the location and size of the original minidisk from the CP directory entry. You do not have to define any minidisks on the alternate volume. CA VM:Backup restores the minidisks that are defined on the original source volume currently in the CP directory to the same physical locations on the target volume.
When you start the restore, ensure that the target volume is online and not attached to any user ID (including CA VM:Backup).
If you are restoring a CKD device, the target volume must be the same device class and type as the source volume. For example, you must restore a 3380 device to a 3380 device. If you are restoring an FBA device, the target volume must be an FBA device.
