These aren't IBM directories. They are directories created within the same
job as created the tiff document. The directory and 3 out of 4 objects
within the directory are ALWSAV(*YES).

Unless I find some current ones that are ALWSAV(*NO) I'm not going to worry
about what happened 2 years ago. These were on our development partition
so who knows.

I'm trying to find a quick way of finding anything in production that is
set incorrectly. Nothing is flagged in BRMS on the development partition
prior to the upgrade to 7.3 so I know there won't be anything flagged in
production (which is still at 7.1).

Thanks,


Gord

Jim's right. Creating your directories and files in certain existing IBM
directories is going to be trouble.

It's not like IBM spun the random wheel to flag a directory as
ALWSAV(*NO). They picked them on their intended contents, log files for
example.

Be careful of just trying to change the IBM directories to ALWSAV(*YES).
IBM has a history of setting IFS attributes at each IPL. Several of us
had to give IBM a serious beat down to stop flagging /tmp with
CHGATR OBJ('/tmp') ATR(*RSTDRNMUNL) VALUE(*YES)
at every IPL as that immediately put a stop to email from working.
Maybe they've amended their ways and no longer do changes this way but I
don't know about other directories and the ALWSAV option and how they set
that. So it's something to be aware of.

That sounds like an application problem.

No, normal tifs created from the i. One directory I looked at had 4 tifs
all created at the same time. 3 were ALWSAV *YES and one was *NO. They
were created in 03/2017 so a little difficult to debug it now.

Since these have never been saved, I almost afraid to see what hasn't been
saved in production.

We just upgraded our development partition from 7R1 to 7R3. With the
change IBM made in 7R3 to report the CPD37C3 (Cannot save ....) we
find a lot of random IFS objects that aren't being saved because they
have ALWSAV set to *NO. I say random because we have objects that
were created in the same time and in the same directory as other
objects that have ALWSAV(*YES).


Any chance these files were copied from the QNTC file system?

I've found that the ALWSAV attribute is *NO for IFS files copied from
QTNC.
