Steps to ensure that the control data sets are accurate

After you recover the control data sets, you can do the following to ensure that they are accurate:

  1. Issue the AUDIT commands to determine if any discrepancies exist between the data set records in the recovered control data sets and the data set records in the computing system catalog.
  2. Issue the AUDIT commands with the FIX parameter to fix any errors that AUDIT can correct.
  3. Issue the FIXCDS command to fix any minor problems encountered in the recovered control data sets.
