<h3>Activity (ACTIVITY)</h3>
|
||
|
|
<p>The Activity parameter allows you to specify the activity that is to be used when processing the control group. You can specify that the <b>Weekly activity</b> attribute of the control group entries is to be used or specify a specific type of activity which will override the <b>Weekly activity</b> attribute of the control group entries.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Activity overrides must be enabled for the control group specified in the CTLGRP parameter when specifying a value other than *CTLGRPATR for the Activity parameter. Activity overrides for the control group can be enabled or disabled from the properties Activity tab for the BRMS backup policy using the BRMS iSeries Navigator client. The backup policy will have the same name as the control group name.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Diagnostic message BRM400A is sent by the STRBKUBRM validity checking program if activity overrides are disabled and the value for the ACTIVITY parameter is not *CTLGRPATR.

<dt><b>*INCR</b></dt>

The type of incremental save is determined by the current value of the <b>Incremental type</b> attribute of the control group. The override applies to all days of the week. Each entry in the control group will be processed when the command is run regardless of the current value specified for the <b>Weekly activity</b> attribute for the entry. This includes exit entries. If the control group entry does not support incremental saves, the entry will not be processed and diagnostic message BRM400F will be entered into the job log.

<p>The Retention parameter allows you to specify the retention attributes that are to be applied to objects saved by the control group.

STRBKUBRM CTLGRP(BACK01)
|

</pre>
|

|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This command submits a batch job for backup control group BACK01. The batch job is not scheduled, so it will start immediately assuming batch job processing is active.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Example 2: Overriding the Save Activity</b>
|

STRBKUBRM CTLGRP(BACK01) ACTIVITY(FULL)
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This command submits a batch job for backup control group BACK01. The control group is set up to normally perform cumulative saves. When this backup is run, the cumulative saves will be overriden and a full save will be performed.
|

<p><b>Example 3: Overriding the Save Retention</b>

RETENTION(*DAYS 2555)
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This command submits a batch job for backup control group BACK01. The control group is set up to normally perform cumulative saves with a retention of 30 days. When this backup is run, the cumulative saves and retention will be overriden. A full save with a retention of 2555 days will be performed.
|

</p>
|

|
|
<p><b>Example 4: Overriding Omitted Save Items</b>

|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This command submits a batch job for backup control group BACK01. The control group is set up to normally perform cumulative saves with a retention of 30 days and uses omits defined in the backup policy. When this backup is run, the cumulative saves, retention and omits will be overriden. A full backup which includes the omit items will be performed and a retention of 2555 days will be applied to the save.
|
||
|

</p>
|

|
|
<p>This command submits the *SYSTEM backup control group to the controlling subsystem for batch processing. Since the backup does not use the BRMS console monitor or any interactive processing, the backup requires complete media management automation.
