Re: Long SAVSYS

I guess it goes without saying that the SAVSECDTA should be added to every save, and if you come out of a restricted state as soon as the SAVSYS finishes, the SAVSECDTA needs to be the very next thing done?

Also make sure to adjust your recovery plan for this change.

Years ago IBM recommended adding *SAVSYS& *SECDTA *USRASPAUT to the omit list to improve save performance. Time for more research. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Issue PRTPRFINT for all profiles, and look at the percentages.

Search that command name along with SAVSECDTA and\or SAVSYS in past
discussions [here and discussion\articles elsewhere on the web] to see
likely origin for save performance issue due to the amount of
authorities being saved.

_i Print Profile Internals (PRTPRFINT) i_
Where allowed to run: All environments (*ALL)
Threadsafe: No

The Print Profile Internals (PRTPRFINT) command allows you to print a
report containing information on the number of entries contained in a
user profile (*USRPRF) object. The number of entries in the user profile
determines the size of the user profile.

Four types of entries can be found in a user profile:

Owned objects:
For every object a user profile owns, an "owned objects" entry
exists in that user's profile (*USRPRF).

Private authorities:
For every private authority a user is granted, a "private
authority" entry exists in that user's profile (*USRPRF).

Authorized objects:
For every user that is granted a private authority to an object a
profile owns, an "authorized object" entry exists in the object owner's
profile (*USRPRF).

Primary group authorities:
For every object for which a user is the primary group, a "primary
group" entry exists in that user's profile (*USRPRF).

Each entry in the user profile causes the user profile (*USRPRF) object
to grow.
