Re: Run SAVRSTLIIB to same machine -- MIDRANGE-L

Hi Bryan

From my observations it does not save the entire library prior totransmission, therefore the storage required is (presumably) lowerthan what would be required to do a fulll save of the library andthen to restore it. From what I have seen it starts to save to a savfile and then opens a connection to send that file to the remotesystem. Once the connection is open on the remote system it commencesthe restore - you can see the objects being progressively restored asthe save file data arrives. One thing I haven't looked at however iswhat the space is allocated to the save file so it may well be thatyou have a point.

It would also presumably be faster as the restore operation isstarted much earlier and this was part of my reasoning for lookinginto this method.

looks like save files to me.
