  Exactly what are you keying in? SAVDIR is not an AS/400 command. At least
  not a core command at V5R2. If it's a version of the SAV command, your DEV
  parameter will have to be in IFS format. Something like
  'Qsys.lib/Qgpl.lib/Tap03.devd'.

  Thanks,

  I am trying to do a directory save to a tape drive that we use every night
  (TAP03) and I am receiving this message..Any suggestions?

  Message . . . . :   Specified value on DEV parameter not valid.

  Cause . . . . . :   A value specified on the device (DEV) parameter must be
  a
    tape, diskette, save file, media library, or optical volume.

  Recovery  . . . :   Change the value on the DEV parameter and try the
  request
    again.
