Specifying when automatic dump processing starts

In the example system, automatic dump processing is started between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. and no new volumes start after 5 a.m. The AUTODUMPSTART parameter of the SETSYS command controls the start of automatic dump processing. In the example system, the following SETSYS command is added to the ARCCMDxx member in each of the hosts: 
SETSYS AUTODUMPSTART(0300 0400 0500)

Before automatic dump can start, you must have specified that backup be enabled in that particular host.
