RE: Long SAVSYS

Becky,

Your first save after an IPL will be longer than normal, per IBM document.
Once every object is touched 1st time, save will be quicker.

Becky,

If you look at the DSPLOGBRM type(*bku) can you tell what steps ran the longest?

Sometimes that *LINK can be significant! Of course, when your *link includes nine Domino partitions...
