I would report that to IBM as a bug and make them fix it. In a
restricted state you should not have to be concerned with object locks
on anything when doing a backup - assuming the system did actually end
to a restricted state (check for msg in QSYSOPR).
A possible circumvention for this may be to vary off any comm
lines/network interfaces - that may free the locks the Network Stations
have.
PS - 10 lashes with a wet noodle for using IBMIRD as the volume id on
your tapes instead of assigning unique volid's so you can tracl for
tape defects through the Product Activity Log in STRSST, or with the
PRTERRLOG *VOLSTAT command.

Subject: RE: SWA help
I'll give you an example of when you might want to use SWA in a
restricted state. After shutting down several tasks in an
orderly fashion we run the ENDSBS *ALL *IMMED. We have a program that
does the same as option 21 of the SAVE
menu but it also logs the time of each step. The program will hurl on
our as/400s that are busy netstation users.

Subject: RE: SWA help
Restricted state means the controlling subsystem has not been started,
the system itself can have lots of concurrently active jobs and even
subsystems. So, SWA is very much applicable in a restricted state, and
I
see no reason why it should not work.
