Copying archive datasets

Adabas Audit Data Retrieval uses hardware pointers for efficient positioning during reloading. You must therefore always use the utility BST08OCP if you want to create copies of archive datasets. Using BST08OCP will ensure that the required hardware pointers are set correctly.

Trying to reload data from copies of archive datasets that have been created with a different utility will lead to I/O errors. If you have already created copies with a different utility, you can copy these archive datasets again using BST08OCP. The hardware pointers for the newly created copies will then be correct.
