Backup and Recovery

To assist your site with backup and recovery, CA View provides the following features:

Automatic backup of the current disk archival generation of SYSOUT and the master index during the CA View backup cycle
Interim backups to minimize the time for which no backup exists on tape
Restoration of a corrupted database with the SARDBASE RESTORE and SARRSP programs
Restoration of a complete generation of SYSOUT data from tape to disk with the SARTDR program
Tape mapping, copying, and salvaging with the SARTCP program
Forward recovery, which provides recovery of SYSOUTs that were archived after the last backup of the database

During tape backup, the tape is cataloged when the tape is opened.
