Yes, if you have disk space!  I have 3 Data libraries with all the data objects,
not all the data that is in live though.  One for programming test, one for user
scenerio test and one with live data.

To make it all fit, when I refresh the data, I have a cl that changes all
logicals to *rebld in the test library, also one to start and end journaling.
A cl that controls what data I copy, I only restore the PF's I want and leave
the rest empty.  The program that starts the menu for the user looks at a
special file to create the library list as they signon, so I hardly ever have
the need for duplicate program objects.



>Can I RESTORE to Some OTHER LIBRARY
from our SAVE 21
Selected Physical Files, all their Members, all their Logicals
Naming only the Physical & some *ALL to get all Members & Logicals
or do I have to name all the pieces in the right sequence?



Depending on you AS/400 version, I think at least after V3R7 the logical file
      pointing to the Physical works just fine!

 Use...
RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(MYLIVE) DEV(MYDEVICE) MBROPT(*ALL) RSTLIB(MYTEST)
