VFYIMGCLG and ALWSAV Attribute

Anybody (besides me) notice that when you VFYIMGCLG all the images get the
ALWSAV attribute turned OFF.

I did this:

Build the catalog on system "A".
CHGATR ALWSAV(*YES) for the entire tree '/i5os'
VFYIMGCLG for the i5OS media to be sure it's a good one.
VFYIMGCLG for the PTF media to be sure it's a good one.
SAV ..... '/i5os' to tape so I can restore it on System "B".

Find there isn't anything on the tape!!

Checking the ALWSAV attribute it's not OFF.

So I turned it on. Verified it was on. Re-ran VFYIMGCLG. Now it's back
off.

THANKS IBM. (Grrr.) BUT at least I found it while SAVING the files and
not while RESTORING (or not) them.
