Backing Up User Libraries on Auxiliary Storage Pools Devices

Assume the system is configured with an auxiliary storage pool group consisting of a device named PAYROLL serving as the primary auxiliary storage pool device, and ACCOUNTS serving as the secondary auxiliary storage pool device. The following screen shows that in order to perform a save of all user libraries, three separate *ALLUSR backup items are required. One *ALLUSR with *SYSBAS is specified to save the libraries on the system and basic user auxiliary storage pools, and one *ALLUSR for each of the PAYROLL and ACCOUNTS auxiliary storage pool devices.

You might consider using this approach if the auxiliary storage pools devices have been configured as private (non-switchable) disk pools. Notice that the *ALLUSR backup items directed to the PAYROLL and ACCOUNTS auxiliary storage pool devices is after the *LINK backup item. This was done to optimize the recovery because objects saved from auxiliary storage pool devices are always recovered after the objects on the system and basic user auxiliary storage pools are recovered.
