Saving storage for mirrored protection

 

If the system is using mirrored protection, only one copy of the data from each mirrored pair is saved. When you restore your system by using the SAVSTG tapes, mirrored protection will not be active.

1. Starting the save storage procedure
   After you complete the prerequisites listed here, you can begin the save storage procedure.
2. Responding to messages
   While the SAVSTG procedure is running, you may see either the Handle Tape or Diskette Intervention display or the Device Intervention Required display.
3. Completing the SAVSTG process
   When the last tape is complete and no errors have occurred, the tape automatically rewinds and a normal IPL occurs. You will then need to follow some specific steps to complete the process.
