Hi, We would like to use DFSMShsm ABARS to transfer an applications datasets from one lpar to another. The transfer will take place more than once, first during a test period and then again at the cut-over. DFSMShsm ABARS makes it possible to bundle active, ML1 and ML2 datasets and get them to the target lpar into the same categories. When we repeat the transfer during the test period and finally at cut-over, we need to first delete the datasets on the target lpar. Does DFSMShsm ABARS offer help to identify the datasets so that they can be deleted, even more so, further datasets that are created by the said application?
The Redpaper "DFSMShsm ABARS Aggregate Stacking Procedure" (This document REDP-4444-00 was created or updated on July 30, 2008.) gives an overview and samples for ABARS. In the Redbook "DFSMShsm ABARS and Mainstar Solutions" (Aug 2002) I see the Mainstar Solutions' sister products ASAP and Backup & Recovery Manager. Would I be dependant on these products to do this application migration? I would appreciate your help.
