Paul,

This is very important information for me. As noted, we are gearing up for a
migration from VSE to iSeries. One process we must be able to duplicate is a
weekly backup to tape from the spooler of reports. I am still new to iSeries
so I wasn't aware of what (if any) limitations there were to this.We are
currently on v5r3m5 but this is incentive enough to begin preparation to
upgrade to v5r4.

Would you mind posting an example of a SAVOBJ command for backup up reports
from specific outqueues to tape? Thanks for your response.
