Yes, there are multiple utilities that could be used. Your backup should use the same utility others use for backing up libraries on that system.i dont know what utility to use
You should not create some new way to do this as it is already being done for other pds datasets on your system. System processes (and bgackups ar4e one of them) should be implemented consistently.I suggest you talk with others who have done similar backups on your system and use the same utility process they use. It would be best if all of these were handled n a similar matter.
It is a good idea to mention that the question related to homework versus an actual requirement for some productoin system. Answers that would be acceptable for class work might not be for processes being integrated into an existing envieonment.yeesh. well, this a homework assignment so i dont know
