Re: MAPICS-L Digest, Vol 1, Issue 850

Shawn,

Happy Holidays to all on this list!!!

IBM has a product called BRMS that can help automate your backups and 
track tapes, etc.

If you need more info, you can check 
out...http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/service/BRMS/

If you look under Business Partners on that page, my firm is listed as an 
IBM approved resource. Please feel free to call if yo would like to 
discuss....

You may be able to handle with CL, but you may want to take a look at a 
more robust solution that is covered under your software subscription for 
the AS/400/iSeries and has update sand other useful applications for your 
ops staff.

Just a thought..

subject: Automate Mapics Backup

I've recently been assigned to administer our 400 and was wanting to
automate the backup process.  About the only time we can get a dedicated
system is on the weekend.  I saw something regarding a Save While Active
and how this could be used throughout the week and then do a full Mapics
on the weekend.  I was wondering if the whole backup process (getting
dedicated system, changing the status of open and abend jobs, cleaning
up Inventory ....) could be done using CL programming?  Thanks for your
responses.
