A year or so, ago may be 2, I tried a SAVSTG on a V5R4 system after many years of not needing/wanting to use it. Boy was I disappointed with the performance on the restore. I don't remember too many of the details but I believe I was swapping a system full of 35GB drives to 70GB drives. SAVSTG needs to have the Same Number of Disks and they all must be the same size or Larger. The restore was taking forever. In the past the restore I had experienced was only slightly longer that the save. So if it took 4hrs to save it would restore in like 4.5 hrs or less. This could be considerably faster than restoring a Save 21 depending on the system etc.

Anyway I placed a call to IBM and was basically told I really shouldn't be using this 'old' and out of date cmd. They couldn't find much of anybody ( at least after hours ) that was even familiar with it.

The key in my example is the same disk configuration, and in the guy in the
class you said had exact same disk configurations. I remember way back
using this for some saves, and we had problems with the restores because the
disks were not the same configuration, and then we had multiple ASPs to
complicate this even more.
