The bpcatarc command reads the output from bpcatlist and backs up the selected list of .f files. After one .f file is successfully backed up, a catalog archive ID is entered into the catarcid field in the image file. For archiving of the.f files to proceed, a policy by the name of catarc is required. The policy is based on a User Backup type schedule. The schedule for catarc must include in its window the time bpcatarc command is run.
