(300) Simulation Test

Simulation test is a well designed function for you to quickly review QMirror/BK in a few minutes. Execute Simulation Test requires QMirror/BK library list to be empty. To empty QMirror/BK library list, use command option 3 – ‘Remove libraries from library list’.

Simulation test uses the following AS400 commands to build up simulation environments:

CRTLIB, CRTDTAARA, CRTSRCPF, ADDPFM, CPYF, CRTPF, CRTLF, MOVOBJ, CHGOBJD, CRTCLPGM, and SQL statements to INSERT, UPDATE physical file.

Start QMirror/BK, use command option T – ‘Simulation test’

You can do more changes on library BK001 or BK002 if you like.

Simulation test continues to create and change objects on AS400. Physical file BK001/FILE001 will be inserted with more records and changes.

To simulate recovery procedure, stop QMirror/BK first, then rename library BK001 and BK002 to BK001_NEW and BK002_NEW. Restore library BK001 and BK002 from save files from library BK_SAVF.

Please take the following steps:
Use Cntl-C to end QMirror/BK
Rename library BK001 to BK001_NEW: RNMOBJ OBJ(QSYS/BK001) OBJTYPE(*LIB) NEWOBJ(BK001_NEW)
Rename library BK002 to BK002_NEW: RNMOBJ OBJ(QSYS/BK002) OBJTYPE(*LIB) NEWOBJ(BK002_NEW)
Restore library BK001: RSTLIB SAVLIB(BK001) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(BK_SAVF/BK001)
Restore library BK002: RSTLIB SAVLIB(BK002) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(BK_SAVF/BK002)
Run run_qmirror_qmbk.bat
Use command option 2 to end QMirror/BK
Use command option R to switch to recovery mode
Run qmirrorbkxxx.exe
Use command option 9 to start recovery
After recovery, compare library BK001 with BK001_NEW, and BK002 with BK002_NEW

You can use PDM to list library BK*.
