Steps for backing up the VSAM data sets

Perform the following steps to back up the VSAM data sets using the DFSMSdss DUMP command.

1. Copy the sample JCL in SYS1.SAMPLIB(IKYVBKUP) to your JCL data set. (See IKYVBKUP for a code sample of this file.)
2. Update the JCL as directed in the instructions in the prolog of the sample JCL:
   1. Change the job card.
   2. If you are not using the default data set qualifiers, change all occurrences of "PKISRVD.VSAM" to the qualifiers you are using.
   3. Change all occurrences of vvvvvv to a VOLSER value that contains sufficient free space to contain a complete backup of both of the PKI Services VSAM data set clusters.
   4. Change the primary and secondary allocation values for the backup data set to values that ensure a complete backup of both VSAM data set clusters. Change the xxx value for the primary allocation, and the yyy value for the secondary allocation.
   5. You can optionally change the data set name for the BACKUPDS DD, but if you do be sure to make the same change to the restore JCL in IKYVREST.
3. Stop the PKI Services address space. For information about how to do this, see Starting and stopping PKI Services.
4. Submit the job.
5. When the job has completed, restart the PKI Services address space. For information about how to do this, see Starting and stopping PKI Services.
