Re: save files

thanks njal and gene,

Interesting that a save file is based on a dump space.

Is saving to tape based on the object dumping process also?  Only diff being
that the dump space object is written to tape?

The actual materializing of the object and waiting on the dtaq for the
completion of the dump, is there an mi opcode for that?  I am guessing that
the s/38 opcodes are used to dump your own objects, not for dumping any
system objects.

a dump space is a string of materialized/dumped objects?

Does the actual materialization occur in a separate job?  Any security
considerations if this is the case?

thanks again,
Steve
