Override Weekly Activity Presentation Characters for DAOS Objects

By default, the following characters can be specified for weekly activity to mix backup types for Domino database objects and DAOS objects:

• N  full save of the domino databases and incremental save of the DAOS objects
• D  incremental save of the domino databases and full save of the DAOS objects

It may be desirable to change the characters that are used with Domino to specify weekly activity for mixed backup types.  

In release IBM i 7.2 or later, the weekly activity presentation characters can be set using the BRMS system policy.  To change the characters used for weekly activity, run the Work with Policies using BRM (WRKPCYBRM)  command with *SYS specified for the Policy type (TYPE) parameter and then select option 5 to Change presentation parameters.

In release IBM i 7.1 or earlier, to change the characters used for Domino, run the following command:

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('DAOSCHARS ' '*SET ' ' ' 'x' ‘y')

where:

x indicates the character to use for full save of the domino databases and incremental save of the DAOS objects
y indicates the character to use for incremental save of the domino databases and full save of the DAOS objects

To set the weekly activity values back to their defaults, run the following command:

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('DAOSCHARS ' '*SET ' ' ' 'N' 'D')

To show the current presentation characters being used to represent mixed saves, run the following command:

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('DAOSCHARS ' '*DISPLAY' ' ')

NOTES:

1. In releases IBM i 7.1 and earlier, the following PTFs or superseding PTFs are required:
   • 7.1 SI40005
   • 6.1 SI40006
   • V5R4M0 SI40001
