You can use this parameter to specify whether to take checkpoints during this transfer. Where,
nnn specifies the time in minutes that each checkpoint takes. If
Y is specified, the interval defaults to five minutes.
Note: Checkpoints are taken at time intervals; therefore, you can start a transfer backup at the point of failure if the transfer is interrupted.
Note: Checkpoint restart processing is not supported when Spanned files are used (
RECFM=VS or
RECFM=VBS).
