Submit Restore Job

Once the JCL created for the restore job has been written to the JOB library, Control-D provides two methods for submitting the job to the system:

• The Control-D monitor will submit the job (default).
• Control-M or another automated scheduling package will submit the job.

These methods are described below:

• Submit using the Control-D monitor.

  Control-D will automatically submit the job to the system.

• Submit using Control-M.

  If you have Control-M installed in Shared Database mode, you can add a condition to trigger the submission of the JCL by Control-M. This is the preferred method for Control-M users because the execution of the restore job can be monitored by Control-M.

• Submit using the production control system.

  You can pass control to another production control system to submit the job. Using this method, the execution of the job can be monitored by the production control system. This method is implemented using Control-D Exit CTDX011.
