Michele Reinkemeyer wrote I was told (when I first started dealing with the
AS/400 and still barely knew how to spell it) that there is a way to run a
complete system save using a CL command through a job scheduled entry.  Is
anyone familiar with this?  If so, would you be willing to share that CL
command?  I want to implement such on 3 of my AS/400's since I am an hr and
a half from office and don't care to drive in each weekend.


I was sure Al was going to give you the answer on the complete system save.
Here is what we have done in the past.  We have a profile setup to be used
only for the weekend backup.  This profile signs on the console on
Friday...which runs in QCTL or the controlling subsystem.  The profile has
an initial program - nothing else happens except the console can no longer
be used.   The DLYCMD is part of TAATOOLS 
The initial program includes the following command.  This delays the job so
that it will start running  on day 2 which will be Sunday.
Like this...
  DLYCMD     CMD(LDSAVSYSB) TIME(215999) DATE(*DAY2) +         
             TEXT('save system weekly ') +      
             RSTDSTATE(*YES)  +                               
             SIGNOFF(*YES)                                    
RSTDSTATE (*YES) means to put the box in restricted state.  The command is
one I have written that does everything option 21 does.   
If you have taatools read the description for the DLYCMD.   I believe you
can figure it all out from there.
