Recovering Libraries with STRRCYBRM

To recover a library with the STRRCYBRM command, take the following steps:

1. Type *LIB at the Option parameter and *RESTORE at the Action parameter.

2. Type the name of the library you want BRMS to restore in the Library field. You can also recover a string of libraries by using a generic library name. For example, you can restore all libraries that begin with P by specifying P* at the Library parameter. After you have specified the library you want to restore, press Enter. This takes you to the Select Recovery Items display.

3. Select the items you want to recover and press Enter.
4. Press Enter at the Confirm Recovery Items display to confirm your selections.
5. If you want to override any of the recovery policy parameters for this specific job, press F9 to take you to the Restore Command Default display. If you do not want to change any recovery policy parameters, press Enter to begin processing the restore.
6. The Display Recovery Items display appears to inform you of the status of your restore.
7. When the recovery completes, a message appears at the bottom of the Select Recovery Items display. This message tells you the number of objects BRMS restored (for example, 1 object) and from which library (LIBA).
8. Check the job log to ensure that the restore completed successfully.

In addition to recovering selected individual libraries, you can use the STRRCYBRM command to restore all of your IBM libraries or all of your user libraries. To restore all of the *IBM or *ALLUSR libraries, specify *IBM or *ALLUSR at the Option parameter. Leave the Library field blank.
