To back up configuration and operations files:
1. For this backup operation, use any tape drive that is in a STARTED state and a
READY substate. To determine the names and current states of the tape drives on
a system:
> SCF STATUS TAPE $*
2. To back up all the configuration and operations files to tape, use the BACKUP
utility. For example:
>BACKUP $tape, (CPU0,$SYSTEM.SYS00.CONFTEXT,&
$SYSTEM.SYS00.CONFLIST,$SYSTEM.ZSYSCONF.CONFIG,&
$SYSTEM.ZLOG00.*,$SYSTEM.ZSERVICE.*),LISTALL,OPEN,VERIFYREEL
For more information on the BACKUP command and options, see the Guardian Disk
and Tape Utilities Reference Manual.
During backup, the $SYSTEM.ZSERVICE.ZZUSERS file is never backed up. Instead,
the $SYSTEM.ZSERVICE.ZZUSERS2 file (a security log for TSM logons), which
contains the same information as ZZUSERS, is backed up.
$SYSTEM.SYSnn.CONFLIST SYSGENR output file
$SYSTEM.ZLOGnn EMS event log ($0 operator log files)
All files located in the $SYSTEM.ZSERVICE
subvolume
Service event log ($ZLOG files)
