Thanks for the help. I thought the PARALLEL parm was only restriced when ExHPDM is invoked. I suppose the PARALLEL parm can also be used for similtaneous backups. -------------------------------------------- On Thu, 6/25/15, Staller, Allan <allan.stal...@kbmg.com> wrote:

I ran a 'TYPRUN=NORUN' and there were no errors posted. My question is will the volumes be restored similtaneously with DFDSS or will it be restored one pack at a time? We used to have ExHPDM which restored 7 volumes at the same time. Below is an example of my jcl deck: //STEP1 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,REGION=0M,PARM='TYPRUN=NORUN' //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //DISK01 DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=SYSRS2,DISP=SHR //DISK02 DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=SYSRS3,DISP=SHR //DISK03 DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=SYSRS4,DISP=SHR //TAPE01 DD DSN=SYSZ390.DFDSS.SYSRS2.COPY1(0), // DISP=OLD //TAPE02 DD DSN=SYSZ390.DFDSS.SYSRS3.COPY1(0), // DISP=OLD //TAPE03 DD DSN=SYSZ390.DFDSS.SYSRS4.COPY1(0), // DISP=OLD //SYSIN DD * REST INDD(TAPE01) OUTDD(DISK01) PURGE COPYVOLID REST INDD(TAPE02) OUTDD(DISK02) PURGE COPYVOLID REST INDD(TAPE03) OUTDD(DISK03) PURGE COPYVOLID /* Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
