Inactive backup data sets z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide SA23-2287-00 |
|
In general, when a system joins a sysplex RACF® becomes active only when all data sets in the primary database and their backups are successfully allocated and opened. However, there is one exception: if a backup data set is inactivated (by the RVARY command) before a system's attempt to join the sysplex, the system successfully joins as a member of the sysplex with RACF active. RACF marks the backup data set inactive and deallocated. An RVARY with the LIST option shows information similar to the
following for an inactive, deallocated backup data set called RACFDB.BACK1
and a successfully allocated and opened primary data set called RACFDB.PRIM1:
After
the system joins the sysplex, a subsequent RVARY to activate RACFDB.BACK1
causes RACF to allocate and
open RACFDB.BACK1 on all systems in the sysplex. |
