Re: System save

["Eric Graeb" <eric_graeb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have an unattended Interactive System save running over the weekend.  A
special user profile is signed on Fridays that calls a CL program as an
initial program. At a specified time on the weekend the system is put into
restricted state and a SAVSYS and SAVLIB *NONSYS is run.  The profile then
IPLs the system.
