Joe,

In the end either approach works and it's a preference thing. I like Rob
tend to use image catalogs as much as possible, that said, I also use save
files since they are so easy to move between my servers and customers.

It's all about what you save into the save file and how you choose to use it
in the end. Either way works.

Paul's reply is certainly valid. I've just gotten more used to virtual tape
since I can store multiple libraries, directories, etc on it versus save
files.

Thanks, Paul.

This is what I'd like to do, because I can then send the save file to
another machine to do a refresh. Rob's virtual volume approach seems
more "BRMS-y" but I'm not sure it will allow me to do what I need.

Yes, we use this process for a single application save, don't need to
worry if the tape library is available.
We then save the savf to media at a later time.

SAVACT(*LIB) SAVACTMSGQ(QSYSOPR) +

2) SAVSAVFBRM LIB(*ALL) MEDCLS(ULTRIUM5) DEV(TAPMLB01) MEDPCY(PERMPTC)
SEQNBR(*END) ENDOPT(*REWIND) CLEAR(*SAVF).

Subject: BRMS Question

This is just a general question, since I'm a BRMS neophyte.

Does BRMS support saving libraries to a save file, and then saving the
save file? I'd like to save a library to a save file (thus freeing up the
library) and then save the save file one or more times to media.

Does this sound like something BRMS supports?

Thanks!
