This will -
- End all programs that use ASW or extension files, and end subsystems so users cannot sign on.
- Do a 'temporary' backup of data libraries only. This uses tape '999999', which has a retention period of one day so that it can be over written every night. It can be used if something happens during the overnight processing, to quickly restore a file the next day if needed (without having to call the tape from off site storage), and to rebuild the test environment.
- Run updates, reports, and housekeeping (clear work files and out queues, and delete unnecessary spool files).
