Nice.

Actually their 5250 interface could use a little work. For example there's CHGLNKLBRM but there's no ADDLNKLBRM type command. Where this would be useful is some process which analyzes the joblog, and for every message that the object was skipped (providing necessary criteria were met) do an ADDLNKLBRM to omit that additional entry.

Earlier we were discussing attributes that can only be changed in the GUI.
Apparently IBM was listening:

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en_us#!/wiki/IBM%20Backup%2C%20Recovery%20and%20Media%20Services%20%28BRMS%29%20for%20i/page/Change%20GUI%20only%20control%20groups%20attributes

Interface to change GUI only control groups attributes

In PTF for 7.2 SI68567
<http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas3SI64248>and for SI68568 <http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas3SI64250>7.3,
enhancements have been made to change the GUI only control group attributes for TCP/IP servers, unmount user-defined file systems, and run maintenance after backup.

Interface to control which control group will not use the select user space code.

- Parm1: (Input, char 10) OL Identifier CHGCTLGATR
- Parm2: (Input, char 10) Control group name
- Parm3: (Input, char 10) Control group attribute

Special values allowed:

- *TCPSERVER – TCP/IP srevers
- *UNMNTUDFS – Unmount user-defined file systems
- *RUNMAINT – Run maintenance after backup



- Parm4: (Input, char 10) Attribute Value object list name - name or *ALL

Valid attribute values:

- If Parm 3 is *TCPSERVER only *NO, *END, *RESTART or *BOTH are allowed
- If Parm 3 is *UNMNTUDFS or *RUNMAINT only *NO or *YES are allowed

*Examples*

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('CHGCTLGATR' ‘MYCTLGNAME’ '*TCPSERVER’
‘*END ‘)

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('CHGCTLGATR' ‘MYCTLGNAME’ '*UNMNTUDFS’
‘*YES ‘)

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('CHGCTLGATR' ‘MYCTLGNAME’ '*RUNMAINT ‘ ‘*YES
‘)

Rob,

These are dedicated restores, not saves.
The restore is from a dedicated system save, using 4 drives, no SWA.

The SWA 120 wait only applies for library objects, not IFS objects.
IFS objects are immediately skipped, there is no wait time.

I possibly have identified the source of the LCKW.
X-lib LF causing IDX rebuilds which puts locks on the PF.
The other restore job(s) are trying to restore LF over a locked PF.

If you only ran one restore job, you would not have this issue,
however, total migration time will be longer.
If you ran the processes interactively, you also would not see this issue.

Keep in mind that SWA is a sick joke when dealing with IFS stuff and
if you're default wait time is 120 seconds then for every IFS object
locked you've just added two minutes on to the run time.
There's also a few qsys.lib objects in which SWA will not save if they
are locked. *USRQ, *USRIDX and that genre comes to mind. Again the
default wait time comes in play.

5=Work with

8=Work with object locks

I tend to run such migration saves interactive, from the console, on a
dedicated system.

Testing a BRMS migration/restore, using 4 drives, submitted to batch.
I'm seeing some of the restore jobs sitting in a LCKW status.

Anyone in the group experience this or know how to determine what is
causing the LCKW.
