Re: Odd Behavior of SAV Command

Have you tried changing the default for DTACPR on SAVLIB? It's possible that SAV uses the command with defaults for whatever is not part of the SAV command. Of course, if this is the case, you want to be careful about changing defaults on these important commands.

Again, I don't know this - but it'd be easy to test.

I've been working on a backup program that uses the SAV command to save both libraries and IFS objects to save files and discovered what I think is a design oversight: the SAV command does not support the DTACPR parameter when saving libraries. It only works when saving IFS objects.

I called Support to find out what was going on and was told that the SAV command was not designed to support saving QSYS objects. This despite the fact that the CL manual on Infocenter makes no mention of such a limitation and, in fact, gives several examples of using the command to save libraries and other QSYS objects.

BTW, the command does save QSYS objects, but it apparently can only save them without data compression.
