Issue/Introduction
Customer did a CA Datacom/AD 12.0 to 15.0 upgrade for CA11.
We have a back-up job that runs nightly against the CXX dataset. It references DBID=601, which is no longer being used with r15. The only SPILL JCL example I could find is AX15LXXS and seems totally unrelated. I cannot find anything about the CXX spill in the manual. Is this something we still need to do? I did run AD15BK02 for the CXX, but that doesn't seem to be something to run daily..
Environment
z/os - CA Datacom/AD 15.0 for CA11
Resolution
Site using MUF startup parameter LOGRCV=NEVER does not need to use SPILL.
Any attempt to SPILL will generate informational DB13082I message: "MULTI-USER HAS LOGRCV YES/NEVER, SPILL DONE IN MULTI-USER" Job will finish with success even without a valid RXX DD STATEMENT.
Again, SPILL job mentioned in CAAXSAMP(AX15LXXS) is not needed if LOGRCV=NEVER.
Additional Information
There is nothing or job or task called "CXX SPILL". Such task is called "LXX SPILL".
Also executing a SPILL when MUF startup parameter LOGRCV=NEVER will generate following informational message and produce rc=0:
DB13082I MULTI-USER HAS LOGRCV YES/NEVER, SPILL DONE IN MULTI-USER -Reason: A spill was requested in a system with the LOGRCV MUF startup option with YES or NEVER. If spillable data exists, it is spilled in the Multi-User Facility. No Recovery File (RXX) is generated in this case.
-Action: None. This message is for information only.
