RE: Automate a full system save in a CL

["Paul Nelson" <nelsonp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It sounds like you were paying attention to Al Barsa back in the day. 😊

 

My version was wrapped in a command called WEEKLY. All the operator had to do was log on to the console on a Friday morning, type WEEKLY, and press enter. The program would wait until 10 PM, back up the entire system, and then reboot the box.

Personally, I do a RTVCLSRC on QMNSRBND, that's where the option 21 - Save  entire System is done.

 

I call it SAVESYSTEM, added some code to cleaning shut down our system jobs and and built a command front end for it.

 

You'll want to also want to remove the parm and add

     CHGVAR VAR(&OPTION) VALUE('QMNSAVE')

 

You end up with a program that display's the save entire system screen, and you can specify the time to start.
