RSTRESET – Reset the Restore Mission Status

If, for any reason, the analysis step of a restore job has not been executed or has abended during the execution, the status of the restore mission remains as RESTORE IN PROCESS, and the status of the reports it caught remain WAIT RESTORE. If this occurs, reset the restore mission status to ENDED and reset the status of the reports by using the RSTRESET job from the Control-D JCL library. This job sets the status of the mission to ENDED NOTOK and resets the status of the reports that failed during the restoration either to BACKED UP or to WAIT RESTORE status, depending on the value of the program parameter (B or W) that was used when the program was invoked from the job. The default value of the parameter is B.

If the reports are reset to BACKED UP status, then they must again be requested to be restored, if necessary by using option R in screen U.

To restore the reset reports, a restore mission can be requested for rerun by using the R option in the A screen. Alternatively, a new instance of the restore mission can be ordered.

Note: Within one execution, the RSTRESET job resets the status of all non-held restore missions currently in RESTORE IN PROCESS status in the Active Mission file, and the status of all related reports.
