CHKSAV CHECK SAVE STRATEGY COMMAND TAASAVA |
The Check Save command allows you to determine if a library or
libraries have had any changed objects or members since the last
save. This allows you to quickly determine if your save strategy is
being implemented correctly (If you use SAVLIB *NONSYS on a daily
basis, you do not need CHKSAV).
Three spooled files are output
** CHKSAVLIB. This provides one line per library so you can
quickly determine if the library is backed up. If the library
is 'Not current', you should then look at the detail in one of
the next two spooled files.
** CHKSAVOBJ. This provides one line per object that is 'Not
current'. If the object is a data base file, you may need to
look at the next spooled file.
** CHKSAVMBR. This provides one line per member that is 'Not
current'.
The output also describes the last time several major system save
operations were executed such as SAVSYS, SAVCFG, SAVSECDTA, etc.
Command parameters *CMD
------------------
LIB 1 - 20 library names or the special value *NONSYS.
These are the libraries that will be checked. If
*NONSYS is entered, all libraries except QSYS will
be checked. If *NONSYS is specified, you must be
authorized to the TAADSPADP authorization list.
IGNQCHGS Ignore queue A *YES/*NO value that determines
whether JOBQ/OUTQ objects will be considered. *JOBQ
and *OUTQ objects are changed by the system. This
can give a false impression of the backup status of
a system. Only the object descriptions are saved
for *JOBQ/*OUTQ objects.
The default is *YES, meaning *JOBQ and *OUTQ objects are not
considered if they are changed.
PRTFILE The qualified name of the printer file to be used.
QPRINT in *LIBL is the default. The spooled file
names are always CHKSAVLIB, CHKSAVOBJ, and
CHKSAVMBR.
