Re: SAVLIB LIB(*ALLUSER)

One thing that may help is the online help on GO SAVE - 21.
This option runs the following commands:
 
    ENDSBS SBS(*ALL) OPTION(*IMMED) 
    SAVSYS 
    SAVLIB LIB(*NONSYS) ACCPTH(*YES) 
    SAVDLO DLO(*ALL) FLR(*ANY) 
    SAV OBJ(('/*') ('/QSYS.LIB' *OMIT) 
      ('/QDLS' *OMIT) UPDHST(*YES) 
    STRSBS SBSD(controlling-subsystem) 

Can you spot the bugs on the example SAV command?

1 - Should have two parenthesis before UPDHST
    SAV OBJ(('/*') ('/QSYS.LIB' *OMIT) ('/QDLS' *OMIT) UPDHST(*YES)
becomes
    SAV OBJ(('/*') ('/QSYS.LIB' *OMIT) ('/QDLS' *OMIT)) UPDHST(*YES)
which may help explain to the one poster why it has two parenthesis at 
all.

2 - Leaves off the device.  Which some will not consider a bug, but a lack 
in documentation.  I can respect that opinion.

And to the other poster, no you cannot save your entire system, or restore 
it using SAV or RST.  You will get the error posted about crossing file 
systems.

Also, I like QOPT in there.  I like being able to be on my PC with a share 
on that directory and being able to see why my LODRUN command doesn't run. 
 Granted, WRKLNK works awfully nice for that also, but I often find PC 
editors nicer than DSPF or EDTF for .txt files.  And, as a man with a few 
years on him, I can remember when very few, if any PC's here had CD drives 
on them.  Using the IFS and QOPT was the way to go.  Sharing it with 
several programmers for Book Manager was a challenge though.  (Again, in 
the days before every desktop had gigs and gigs of disk space.)
