Recording Dataset Activity
Description The BIM-EPIC Recorder logs control dataset activity to a file, including:
All DSN Catalog maintenance transactions, excluding TSIDVLT
(vaulting) maintenance
All open and close activities of controlled datasets
Machine use and job accounting statistics
The Recorder file is vital to emergency recovery of the DSN Catalog. The
file contains a record of all changes made to the DSN Catalog since the
last catalog backup. In the event of a lost or corrupted catalog, BIM-EPIC
uses the data in the Recorder file to recover the DSN Catalog.
You can use Recorder data to produce job-specific accounting reports. In
addition, you can log your own comments in the Recorder file using the
TSIDRFS utility. See the BIM-EPIC Installation and System Guide for
additional information on the Recorder maintenance utility and related
configuration options.
!
WARNING:
Keep the Recorder active at all times and verify that there is
enough disk space to ensure the Recorder does not run out of
space between DSN Catalog backups.
