If you prevented users from accessing the system during your
backup, as discussed in Chapter 4, "Preparing the System," you need
to allow users to access the system again.
To allow users access to the system again, perform the following:
Reset the job and sessions limits to their original values. Enter:
:LIMIT nn,nn
To check that you've used the correct numbers, enter:
:SHOWJOB STATUS
The last line should report the correct job limit (JLIMIT)
and session limit (SLIMIT) for your computer. If the values
are incorrect enter the LIMIT command again with the
corrected values.
Reset the system jobfence to its original value by entering:
:JOBFENCE nn
To check that the jobfence is correct, enter:
:SHOWJOB STATUS
If the jobfence value is incorrect, enter the JOBFENCE
command with the correct value.
Restart any suspended jobs. To determine whether any jobs had been
temporarily stopped, enter:
:SHOWJOB
The system lists your session and any suspended jobs in the
following way:
The example shows one suspended job (#J17). To restart that
job, enter:
:RESUMEJOB #J17
Repeat the RESUMEJOB command for each job listed as SUSP.
When you have done this for each suspended job, check that all have
been restarted by entering:
:SHOWJOB
The list should look nearly identical, except that jobs that
were suspended before should now be listed as executing or EXEC:

When you have returned the system to its normal status and
restarted suspended jobs, the backup is complete, and users can
begin using the system again.
