"Using the output files from RTVDIRINF, should I be concerned about any
of the items which appear in:
select qeznonsav, qezdirnam1, qezobjnam
from routines.qaezd0031o o
join routines.qaezd0031d d
on o.qezdiridx=d.qezdiridx
where qeznonsav='1'
order by qezdirnam1, qezobjnam

"...
My utility is a command named "Find ALWSAV=No Objects (NOSAVOBJ)". You
pass one parameter to the utility to tell it where to search in the IFS.
It will search all directories, subdirectories and objects that are
within the path that you type. ...

I ran across the above\second link, having included RTVDIRINF in a
web search for AlwSav, only because the following link was on the same
page. The following article may provide some information [I did not
read it] about the rationale for how Rob constructed the SQL query:

In V5R3, IBM added the Retrieve Directory Information (RTVDIRINF)
command to collect attributes about objects in a subtree (which can
include the entire system) and put them in database files. A
corresponding Print Directory Information (PRTDIRINF) command is also
provided to print selected subsets of the data collected. ...

Anyone know how to find out what directories/files are set to
*ALWSAV=*NO ? I only found one hit that looked promising, and it
didn't have the code available. Granted, it spelled out the process
in general terms (read the directories with an API, check attributes
with an API) but nothing in my easy category.

What we did to solve lock issues related to the IFS is to omit
from the save by changing the save attribute.
Below is an example, tmp directory and anything below it will
never be saved.
