Recovery of files under foreign user IDs

A user can reconstruct a file cataloged under another user ID only if this file is shareable. Unless specified otherwise, DMS creates a work file under the requesting user's ID. After the damaged file has been recovered, the contents of this work file are copied back into the original file and the work file is erased with data destruction. In some cases, a third file is needed for recovery. This is also created under the user ID of the requesting job. The work files are created on the same volume as the damaged file.The user requesting recovery must therfore be authorized to access the volume containing the damaged file.
