History User Report List File

The History User Report List file contains a list of all backed up reports that have been deleted from the disk. The site can control the time that the report is retained in the History User Report List file. The file also contains details about the storage media of the report data (compressed dataset name on disk, or volsers of tape or cartridge).

To view a report, the user must issue a report restore request from the History User Report List file. When the report restore request is performed, the user report entry is copied from the History User Report List file to the Active User Report List file by the restore mission as soon as the report is restored from tape to disk.
