The Glb.Backup built-in segment attribute is not supported on applications deployed to Windows. It is valid only for MCP-based logic.

Glb.Backup is a built-in segment attribute that is used to retain report or printer output directed to TP devices.

For non-ROC Reports, set Backup to Y to retain Report output directed to TP devices only (the Report output is retained regardless of the setting of the Remove command). If Glb.Backup contains any value other than Y, the Report output is deleted after printing.

For ROC Direct Reports, set Glb.Backup to Y to retain the printer backup file for your main Report, or set Glb.Backupx to Y to retain the printer backup file for a Shadow Report (where x is the Shadow Report designator). If the attribute contains any value other than Y, the printer output backup file is removed after printing.

Glb.Backup cannot be used for ROC Standard Reports.

Once output from a Report has been produced, the value of Glb.Backup remains until the next Release command (or end-of-job), when the most recent change to Glb.Backup is affected.
