In releases 7.1 and later, the recovery report (QP1ARCY) has been changed to move BRMS save file libraries on independent auxiliary storage pools (IASP) from step 'Recover the BRMS Product and Associated Libraries' to step 'Recover IBM Product Libraries'.
In release 7.1, step 'Configure Auxiliary Storage Pool Devices' occurs after step 'Recover IBM Product Libraries'. In order to configure IASPs before an attempt is made to restore the save file libraries, steps '__ STEP <xxx> : Configure Auxiliary Storage Pool Devices' and '__ STEP <xxx+1> : Verify Auxiliary Storage Pool Device Names' should be moved after step '__ STEP <yyy> : Reset BRMS Device and Media Library Information'. When the steps are moved, the contents of the moved steps should be replaced with the following:
***************************************************************************************************
__ STEP <yyy+1> : Configure Auxiliary Storage Pool Devices
Start date/time __________________ Stop date/time __________________ Duration _________________
The recovery includes objects saved from auxiliary storage pool
devices. The auxiliary storage pool devices must be re-configured
before recovery can continue.
Use the "Display ASP Information" report (QP1AASP) to review the
names of the auxiliary storage pool devices of the saved system.
----- Attention ---------------------------------------------------
Verify the proper authorizations before performing any disk management
tasks using IBM Navigator for i. Refer to the "Requirements for disk
management" topic.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- Attention ---------------------------------------------------
If the auxiliary storage pool devices are intended to be used as
switched auxiliary storage pools in a clustered environment, review
the documentation provided with your cluster management product to
identify any pre-configuration steps which may be required prior to
configuring these auxiliary storage pool devices.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Auxiliary storage pool devices may be re-configured using the
following green screen command:
CFGDEVASP ASPDEV(auxiliary-storage-pool-name) ACTION(*CREATE)
TYPE(auxiliary-storage-pool-type) UNITS(*SELECT)
****************************************************************************************************
****************************************************************************************************
__ STEP <yyy+2> : Verify Auxiliary Storage Pool Device Names
Start date/time __________________ Stop date/time __________________ Duration _________________
Display the configured auxiliary storage pool device descriptions.
To do so, type the following command and press "Enter".
WRKDEVD DEVD(*ASP)
Verify the configured auxiliary storage pool device names match the
names of the auxiliary storage pool devices listed in report QP1AASP.
Use option 8=Work with status to verify the status of each auxiliary
storage pool device status is AVAILABLE.
Display, verify and update the BRMS auxiliary storage pool information
as required.
To do so, type the following command and press "Enter".
