History User Report List File

The History User Report List file is the location to which all user and $SYSDATA entries are moved, if archived. The CTDDELRP utility moves the entries to this file. The entries in this file contain information about where their reports reside, that is, the name of the CDAM file and to which volume it has been archived, depending on the backup utility used.

Entries remain in this file for the amount of time specified in the backup mission. When that time has passed, the entries are deleted by the CTDCLHST utility, which also releases the tapes or cartridges back into the system (that is, it makes the tapes and cartridges available again).

Users can request that a particular report be restored from the History User Report List file. The users can either specify the name of the restore mission that will perform this process, or use the default. The restore mission restores CDAM files to disk and moves a copy of the user and $SYSDATA entries.

There are two types of entries that exist in this file:
