RE: Save While Active -- MIDRANGE-L

Maybe I'm missing something here but,

What is the point of using SWA if you're going to put the box to sleep
before you do the backup anyway?

I re-arranged my backups:
a) An intermittent SAVSYS and SAVLIB *IBM when the OS is upgraded or
serviced; this is done in restricted mode but is not frequent (once every
two/three months)
b) Weekly SAVLIB *ALLUSR, SAVDLO and SAV - all using SWA
c) Daily SAVCHGOBJ, SAVDLO and SAV using SWA + SAVSECDTA + SAVCFG

Routine off-line time is zero; ad hoc downtime (e.g. CumPacks etc) by
arrangement with user management.
