Prepare Command for DR Files

[DALCWBSMAVS]

I have run the following command and receive the following errors. This is my first time trying to setup the DR recovery files so that we can receive them incase of an emergency. Anyone have any ideas? I see a lot of these files are saying 'not found'. Is this something I have to create myself or will it automatically be created?

Hi, yes you need to create those files yourself. All the info you need to set up your prepare instructions are located here:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg246844.pdf

More specifically, files creation is addressed in section 8.7.1.

I hope this help.
