RE: Backup cl-program question

May I suggest that you do the SAVDLO prior to the SAV.

Why?  The chances of needing any DLO documents in a full recovery are at
best minimal now, and since there is a suggestion that Save While Active be
used, the SAVDLO will cause an error message to be issued.  The save order
is of little consequence until a recovery is needed, then it could be
critical

In a recovery I need the critical objects first, so I want them as near to
the front of the tape as I can get them.

Jan:

Why omit ProdData?  There is critical information in those directories for
a recovery.  Omitting QUSRSYS also mystifies me.   It's one of the most
critical libraries on the system, and is part of the *ALLUSR save due to
the amount of user data (read non - IBM) that resides in it.

I can see not backing up performance data, it's not needed for recovery
anyway, although you will at least need the as delivered libraries in order
for some LPPs to work.
