Yes, it uses roughly the same amound of tape space, but it is somewhat faster. A
restore is a lot faster, especially if you have large logical files (and you
used the default ACCPTH(*NO) during save) and/or you have a lot of members in
files. And SAVSTG also saves things like spoolfiles, contents of dataqueues etc.
SAVSTG is ideal to use before an OS/400-upgrade.
