RE: SAV/RST spool files function in OS/400 -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Dave - Personally I want more than just the spool file data... I would like to have a true save/restore process for a spool file. There is a big difference.

Recreating a spool file from a copy of its data is only part of the process.

An example: I would like to restore a spool file and have it's attributes indicate "when it was originally created", "who created it" and "what job it was create in"...

The available API's can't restore this kind of information, they can only recreate a spool files data.

As someone else mentioned, if all you need is the spool file data, there are already API's that will allow you to do this. Why do we need IBM to do it?
