Due to performance reasons the log files PCOUT and PCOUT2 do not have to be mirrored

because if records are converted into access rights, these files will be mirrored anyway.

But it is possible.

PCOUT

PCOUT2

Additional the data areas:

JOB010

JOB011

JOB012

JOB013

JOB014

And the user space:

PCSVALUE

The following procedure should be used if both system have to be synchronized for the first time:

SAVLIB in savefile QGPL/QPCS takes place on the production system.

This can be done while production process.

SAVLIB LIB(QPCS) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QGPL/QPCS) SAVACT(*YES)

This savefile will be copied to savefile QGPL/QPCS on the backup system by using FTP (binary mode).

The following commands will be executed there:

Restore can be done by using:

RSTOBJ OBJ(PCSINST) SAVLIB(QPCS) DEV(*SAVF) OBJTYPE(*PGM) SAVF(QGPL/QPCS) RSTLIB(QGPL)

Using this command restores program PCSINST in library QGPL.

Now you have to call the installation program by using command:

CALL QGPL/PCSINST ‘*SAVF’

At the end of the installtion, the license key for the backup system has to be entered,

Now you can start mirroring.
