the backup to fit on a single cartridge. <<SNIP>>
Reducing the size of the *DBXREF files will not reduce storage
requirements on tape\backups, only reduce the storage on disk\DASD.
That is because the Save System (SAVSYS) does *not* include the data
[from all but one, typically the smallest] of those files QADB* in QSYS;
neither the physical data nor the access paths of all but the QADBXRDBD
files are ever saved.
To reduce the size of storage in the SAVSYS, delete any unneeded
History files (QHST*) and reduce the private authorities; private
authorities can be moved to Authorization Lists (*AUTL), but as
consolidated authorities, they will take significantly less storage.
