Because the recovery steps are different. Neither I nor the tech has
recovered a full system from a BRMS save (I've never had to recover ANY
system by any means). The tech company requested a SAVE 21 so that's what
I'm going to give them.

Jeff,

Just curious.

Why are you doing a Save 21 if you have BRMS?
Why not do a similar process from BRMS?

We have BRMS as well.

I did a RTVCLSRC on QMNSAVE. There's no STRSBS in there. And there's no
CHKTAP either, but I know a SAVE 21 does one.

That CL program is not CL 101 methinks. :)

The "21" save is really just a CLP (QMNSAVE) that IBM wrote to back
up the system. So to stop the system from coming back up modify the
program so the very last step does not start the controlling
subsystem.

Better yet, create a new start up program that only sends a message to
the operator message queue that says "I ran!" and then stops. That's
the easiest. When you're done set it back to normal.

This is all assuming you do not have BRMS as well.

Subject: SAVE 21 and stay restricted

IBM i 7.1, up to date on PTFs.

Saturday I will be doing a SAVE 21 prior to a cache battery replace.
The SAVE 21 will be attended because I'm using a library device.

When finished with the SAVE 21, I would like the system to stay in
restricted state. The tech is going to fail the cache battery at that
point and we'll issue a PWRDWNSYS. It seems like a waste to start the
controlling subsystem only to immediately shut it down again.

I found this http://www.itjungle.com/fhg/fhg051612-story03.html but
it's from 4 years ago and seems overkill for a one-off.

Question: Because it's attended, when the command comes up at the end
to start the controlling subsystem, what happens if I hit F12? Or F3?
Will that work and leave it restricted?

Thanks.
