I've always felt that IBM made a mistake in naming this command
(SAVSYS). Something more descriptive such as SAVQSYS or SAVSYSLIC
would've made its purpose more intuitive. I'm not sure what name
would really be best, but I'm pretty sure SAVSYS isn't it.
Particularly for less technical sites and newbies, SAVSYS seems
to get mentally equated to 'Save system', 'full system save' and
SAVE menu option '21. Entire system', even if it's only
perception. The purpose of restricted state then becomes vague
(not that it's absolutely clear otherwise).
