APPENDIX1.2.9 Recovering After a Terminal Line Disconnect



If your user profile contains the RECOVER attribute and you are using permanent EDIT work files, EDIT creates a work file during your edit session, which can be used as input to recover any modification made to your data set in the event of a line disconnect or system failure.

   Through the use of the CKPOINT subcommand of EDIT and the RECOVER operand 
   of the EDIT command, you are given the opportunity to recover the 
   modifications made to your data set prior to the disconnect. 


   If your user profile contains the NORECOVER attribute and you are using 
   temporary EDIT work files, the system attempts to copy your edited data 
   set (with all changes) into a data set with an intermediate qualifier name 
   of EDITSAVE. This data set can be edited the next time you log on.
