So, the idea of running DFHSM with a a limited ARCCMDxx as part of the CDS restore job is not viable! Message ARC0009I DFSMSHSM STARTUP ATTEMPT FAILED, NOT A STARTED TASK happens
So, I guess I have no choice but to document it as a task to be performed post 1st IPL of the recovered system And, I guess the errors ARC0747E UNABLE TO CATALOG DATA SET 753 ARC0747E (CONT.)
