EXPORT PARAMETERS PHYSICAL POOL TO EXPORT:09
For pools 1-9, you must specify them as 01 through 09.
Following the export parameter record you can optionally include an options record. Through the options
record you can:
Specify that exported physical volumes are to be directly ejected to the I/O station rather than be placed
in the export-hold category. If it is not specified, exported physical volumes are placed in the export-
hold category. On systems that are running R1.7 or higher, if a physical volume in the copy export-hold
category goes empty and it is still in the library it will be returned to READ-WRITE status and its home
pool for reuse on the next copy export execution.
Specify that the export is a copy export. If it is not specified, it is assumed to be a copy export operation.
The fields in the options record are separated by a comma and can be in any order after the record identifier
OPTIONS1. OPTIONS1 must start in the first column. The following values are valid options:
Perform a copy export. This is a required option.
If specified, physical volumes are ejected to the I/O
station when the export completes. If this option is
not specified, physical volumes are left in the library
but marked as export hold.
Export accelerator. If more than five physical
cartridges are exported the backup will only be
appended to the first two and last two cartridges.
Here are a couple of examples:
For copy export where the physical volumes would be placed in the export-hold category for later handling
by an operator:
OPTIONS1,COPY
For copy export where the physical volumes are to be directly ejected to the I/O station:
OPTIONS1,COPY,EJECT or OPTIONS1,EJECT,COPY
For copy export where the customer wants to leverage the accelerator option and only append the database
backup for recovery to four of the exported tapes. If fewer than five tapes are exported all will have the
backup. With this command the volumes will be marked as export hold and kept in the library:
OPTIONS1,COPY,LMTDBPVL
For copy export where the customer wants to leverage the accelerator option and eject the pvols when the
export completes:
OPTIONS1,COPY,EJECT,LMTDBPVL or OPTIONS1,COPY,LMTDBPVL,EJECT
