go save 21 blues--resolution gotcha

[Jerry <jdraper@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The answer was that a sndbrkmsg *allwkstn was broadcast prior to the save system
21 and DSP01 was sitting there waiting for someone to press enter so that the
save system 21 could proceed.

Gotcha!!

This was the problem:

I am not getting a go save 21 to work in unattended mode.

I followed the backup and recovery guide instructions but the job never
kicks
off.

Here's what I did:

signon as qsecofr to dsp01 in qctl
init tapes as needed in tap02
qinactitv-*none; Yes
CPA3708 in wrkrpyle?  Yes
selected option 21
  device=tap02
  prompt=N
  chk act files=N
  msg queue=*notify
  start time=21:15:00
  vary network srvrs=*none
  unmount file sys=N
  print sys info=Y
  use sys reply list=Y

It prints the sys info and then leaves me with CPI3716 as expected.


21:15:00 arrives and passes but the job never starts.  There are no
messages on
qsysopr or qsecofr.  WRKACTJOB shows DSP01 in DSPW status.  I've done this
twice now with the same results.  This job takes 12 hours so it is not
something that can be casually scheduled.

We have an 830 at V5R2.
