SARVERO - ERO Statement Validation Utility

SARVERO can be run as a batch program which will validate the ERO Table in the same manner as the Backup Cycle and produce the same error messages and return codes. It will also run a Standard Backup simulation--no tapes will be mounted and no reports will be deleted. Its purpose is to just give you an estimate of how many reports and tapes will be scratched and/or migrated on the next standard backup.

A return code of zero indicates that no errors are found. The program will terminate with a User Abend U'0001' and error messages in the Job Log if errors are found.

Note: Successful completion of the table syntax-checking will result in the execution of the backup cycle simulation. To prevent the simulated backup, specify a parm of ",TABLE" after the database high level qualifier.
