If I remember correctly (it's been awhile since I've done this) - if *NWSD is varied off, storage space is backed up in it's entirety as a single AS/400 object - and then it will be saved with /QFPNWSSTG directory. If *NWSD is varied on, then AS/400 will attempt to backup it's contents on a file level, and then these directories/files will be saved with an IFS directory where these directories/files logically belong. It's much easier (and faster) to vary off *NWSD and save entire storage space. It's also much easier to restore - restoring on a file level requires some very carfeul sequence of steps.

I don't think you'll like this answer, but AFAIK there are only two basic ways to backup and restore that space. First is to do a full storage save and restore rather than a system save/restore. Second is to run an NT-based backup and restore. The AS/400 essentially doesn't see what's in that space and therefore only backs up and restores the high-level directory. See the IPCS manual on Implementing the IPCS for details. (Not sure of the name of the manual.)
