Re: BRMS CPF5140 Error

Yes, the DSPLOGBRM command can be used to analyze BRMS activity, see my
previous post. The BRMS save process (from what I recall) look much like a
GO SAVE 21. The BRMS restore screens are a little nicer.

You also have standard job logging for the user initiating the backup (in
our case, CONSOLE. Gee, guess where that came from?).
