What are two reasons to run the DB Batch backout utility?

Answer Posted / jak

1)The utility is used to recover databases to a point before
a program was initiated, or to a checkpoint or sync point.
2)It backs out all updates for all DL/1 data sets performed
in that time period.

That why for batch backout utility we need the job name,PSB.

It is run as a normal IMS batch job and uses the program
specification block (PSB) of the program whose
updates are to be backed out.
