• Scheduler Job Management

Issue/Introduction

Two Jobs definitions were accidentally deleted in Scheduler.   We have backup files that are taken using the CAJUTIL0 BACKUP commands. 

How to restore the deleted information without affecting any jobs that are running.

 

Environment

Release : 11.0

Component: Scheduler Job Management

Resolution

RESTORE the data base to a test Scheduler system so you can copy the needed jobs definitions from there.   Sample JCL:  

//RESTORE EXEC CAJUTIL0                                     
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
