Sequence=(n,m)
Nosequence
Specifies that the journals with sequence numbers from n to m
inclusive are to be backed up. The values n and m are interpreted
or interpolated as follows:
o If Sequence = (33, 35) is specified, then the .aij files with
sequence numbers 33, 34, and 35 are backed up.
o If Sequence = (53, 53) is specified, then the .aij file with
sequence number 53 is backed up.
o If Sequence = (53) is specified, then the .aij files with
sequence numbers 53 and lower are backed up, if they have
not been backed up already. For example, if .aij files with
sequence numbers 51, 52, and 53 have not been backed up, then
Sequence = (53) results in these three .aij files being backed
up.
o If Sequence = (55, 53) is specified, then .aij files with
sequence numbers 53, 54, and 55 are backed up.
o If the Sequence qualifier is specified without a value list,
both n and m are set to the sequence number of the next
journal that needs to be backed up.
The default is the Nosequence qualifier. When the default is
accepted, the backup operation starts with the next journal that
needs to be backed up and stops when the termination condition
you have specified is reached.
The following qualifiers cannot be used or have no effect when
used with the Sequence qualifier:
Continuous
Format=New_Tape
Interval
Quiet_Point
Threshold
Until
Furthermore, fixed-size after-image journals must be in use when
this qualifier is specified.
