Requirement Form
Date: 4/11/2003 Requirement #: WAVV200313
Title: (Paraphrase problem in a
single statement)IXFP needs the capability to
Snap individual VSAM files.
Detailed
Problem Description: (Description of what you want changed - 400 character entry limit)
IXFP now only allows
Snapping entire VSAM catalogs and their volumes. If a job abends and we need to
restart a job sequence, there is no way to Snap back just the affected file(s)
- we have to Snap either all volumes (in the other direction) or run an IDCAMS
BACKUP/RESTORE from the target to get just the files we need. And depending on
the amount of data involved, that conceivably could take hours
Priority: (Select one: Urgent
- High - Medium - Low)
High
Requested
Completion Date: (When? Examples: 3 months, 1 year,
Next Release) 6 months

Justification: (Why? Non-technical
business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem
Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your company,
and the vendor and others? Quantify:
run time, dollars, manpower, etc. Why
should the vendor do this for the customer?)
Reruns are expensive and extend the hours that
our on-line systems are down.
Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a
vendors ability to deliver a solution)
Expand the function of IXFP and VSAM to handle
individual VSAM files.
Impact: (Optional) (How
will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
