Issue/Introduction

We run 5 View SARSTC tasks.

I'm looking to stagger the BACKUP start times. 

Can you provide example JCL to change the times the backups start?

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA View

Resolution

To change the start time of a View backup, you would use the following JCL:

//XXXXXXXX JOB ...                                                
//SARINIT EXEC PGM=SARINIT                                        
//STEPLIB  DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=VIEW.CVDELOAD     <=== MODIFY, IF USED
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*                                           
//SYSIN    DD  *                                                  
NAME=VIEW_HLQ  
TIME=hhmm                                                   
/*                                                                
//    

After a run of SARINIT, to change the parameter, you will need to do a recycle of the SARSTC task, for the parameter change to take effect.
