I see we have some confusion(probably on my part). To be able to recover, you need to back up everything you mention(entire smpe environment, target and dlib datasets covered by the SMPE environment). I read your initial question with the idea that the GLOBAL, TARGET and DLIB zones were for an entire Serverpac environment (i.e. your entire operating system), vs a single product like CICS or DB2.

If I am in a situation where I need to restore my target and distribution zones, wouldnt I also have to restore all the datasets defined in DDDEF? thanks Bill ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
