The following definitions apply to the BACKup utility JCL:
SLSPRINT
the message output data set.
SLSCNTL
the primary control data set. This statement must be provided.

that if a switch occurs and the secondary data set is now active, the CDSs can be
reordered to maintain database integrity.
SLSBKUP
the created backup data set.

occurs and the standby data set is now active, the CDSs can be reordered to maintain
database integrity.

statement) is copied. This statement is not required when you specify OPTion(Copy).
SLSCOPY2
the data set to which the secondary control data set (specified by the /FILE
SLSCNTL2 statement) is copied. This statement is not required when you specify
