This example specifies BACKup with the SLSCNTL statement to identify the primary 
control data set. Backup is processed without a secondary control data set and journals. 

Output resulting from the execution of the BACKup utility includes: 

• the following data sets: 

- backup of the library control data set 
- copies of the primary and secondary control data sets 
- reset of the control data set journals. 

• a listing of input commands with appropriate messages when syntax errors occur

• messages associated with backup processing 

Note: These messages may include error conditions. 

• an ‘‘Errant and In-transit Location Report’’ (refer to Figure 11 on page 222) 

Note: This report is normal. In-transit and possibly errant VOLSERs are normal 
when the HSC is active. 

• a ‘‘Block Processing Report’’ and a “Block Record Element Discrepancy Report,” 

which may include reports of mismatches between the primary and secondary CDS 
(refer to Figure 11 on page 222) 

Note: Unselect cards may be generated during a good backup of a primary and 
secondary CDS that match.
