Re: Reclaim Storage

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Barsa's Rule of Thumb on RCLSTG.

It's never necessary to do a Save Option 21 prior to RCLSTG, because it
always works perfectly.  (If you believe this, I have a bridge that goes
from City Hall to Brooklyn that I would like to sell you.)

Now, do your Save Option 21 first, because you can't be too safe.

We performed our last reclaim storage about 2 ½ years ago on V4R5. We are
now on V5R1 preparing to go to V5R2 next month. Is it necessary to perform
a system backup prior to doing a reclaim storage? I am not certain what all
the reclaim storage does, so if it craps out in the middle, would we be
stuck with our shorts down if we do not have a backup?
