First off, thanks Vern and Pete.

I have all the manuals and redbooks and am following these.

The system that I am doing this work on is a test partition which is only
allocated 0.25 Proc Units and minimal RAM as well.

So I don't expect great performance.

The 'GO SAVE - 21' which is what I was doing (and not a SAVSYS - sorry Pete)
eventually ended at +/- 22:30. This was my first bash at doing this and I
was just worried that the save hadn't somehow got itself in a pickle and was
looping or something along those lines.

I had decided to do the SAVE prior to permanently applying all V5R4 PTF's so
I could restore to a 'known' stable state in need.

Okay about to apply the 'not permanently applied' fixes, load the images
etc.

Will be back.

DSPOBJD shows you only objects in libraries. There is all the rest of
the IFS to consider.

Be very careful about cleaning the IFS up.

You might want to run RTVDSKINF and PRTDSKINF before doing anything
more, to see where the most disk space is being used.

Do you have a business partner to help you? If not, have you looked at
the manuals from IBM that describe upgrading to 6.1?

Another thing you should probably do is permanently apply all PTFs. This
will reduce the size of your save, etc.

There is much more in the manuals - I don't remember which ones to look
in - someone else here can jump in.

I need to think about what we need to exclude from the actual savsys.

Agree?

Yes Stefan,

SAVE 21 is the actual command.

Well, I'm no where near the site right now. But this is configured as a
3580-004 and capabilities on TAPE properties hows this as being ULTRIUM
2/3/4 capable.

Is there anyway of seeing how many objects we 'need' to save prior to
doing
the actual save 21?

I'm doing a Savsys (ALL) on a test V5R4M0 system prior to upgrading to
V6R1.
I currently have the savsys saying it's processed 3150764 objects.

You are actually running a SAVSYS or ( as I guess ) a Save 21?

If it is a save 21 then we are probably talking about IFS objects,
folders, streamfiles.
You should probably check what's in the IFS before upgrading to 6.1.
What kind of tape device are you using? "Older" Ultrium devices is
extremely slow on small ifs objects.
