Douglas,

Just a couple of suggestions.

A.  To track the sequence of events beyond a joblog.
    1.  Create a message queue for the backup process.
    2.  Write a message to this message queue for each statement
processed.
B.  To determine what was saved use SAVLIB OUTPUT(*OUTFILE).  You can
report the
     contents of the file in any manner you choose.

Subject: creating a log spool file for backups


We have a CL program that operates our backups, but we have not been
logging 
the details of what is backed up, whether or not it is successful, etc.

Here is a snippet of the program, if anyone has any suggestions on how
to 
add in some logging I would be most appreciative.

If you bought, it was hauled by a truck - somewhere, sometime.
