Re: Restoring Objects When SavChgObj is Involved

["Charles Wilt" <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

It depends on how you do your saves....

SAVCHGOBJ UPDHST(*YES)
Restore last full system save
Restore every SAVCHGOBJ save since the full system


or SAVCHGOBJ UPDHST(*NO)
Restore last full system save
Restore last SAVCHGOBJ save
