You can use a BRMS backup and then do what a restore 21 does.
Check document 457133341 Restoring a System without BRMS When the Save Was Done with BRMS
The below commands are basically a restore 21.
RSTLIB SAVLIB(QBRM QMSE QUSRBRM)
RSTUSRPRF
RSTCFG
RSTLIB SAVLIB(*IBM) OMITLIB(QMSE QBRM)
RSTLIB SAVLIB(*ALLUSR)
RSTDLO
RST DEV('QSYS.LIB/media device name.DEVD') OBJ(('/*') ('/QSYS.LIB'
*OMIT) ('/QDLS' *OMIT)) ENDOPT(*LEAVE)
RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(QUSRBRM) MBROPT(*ALL)
RSTAUT

The difference between a BRMS and Go SAVE 21, is just one item, the SAVLIB command. BRMS uses two SAVLIB commands of *IBM & *ALLUSR which can be done while not in a restricted state, but GO SAVE 21 stays restricted the entire time and uses *NONSYS (which is essentially *IBM & *ALLUSR). Note that you can't use a BRMS backup to do a GO RESTORE 21, but you could use the *NONSYS to get both the *IBM & *ALLUSR.

I would think this should work.
I run a very basic one of:
Weekly Retain Save
Backup List ASP Activity Object While
Seq Items Type Device SMTWTFS Detail Active
10 *SAVSYS *DFTACT
20 *IBM *DFTACT *ERR *NO
30 *ALLUSR *SYSBAS *DFTACT *OBJ *NO
40 *ALLDLO *DFTACT *NO *NO
50 *LINK *ALLAVL *DFTACT *YES *NO
But when I run this I run it with OMITS(*IGNORE) this ignores any omits in any omit list. It still doesn't save anything flagged with CHGATR
ATR(*ALWSAV) VALUE(*NO).
Make sure you have this report ready:
STRRCYBRM OPTION(*SYSTEM) ACTION(*REPORT)

Don't laugh at this question, but the older I get I think the more ignorant (or senile) I become.
The cache battery in the CEC just went into warning status overnight, which was expected. The HW service people ordered it a while back and have it.
Before replacing it, they want me to sign off that I did a "save21". I know what that is (go save, option 21). I don't remember them asking me for this before, but they claim they did.
Since we use BRMS, I don't do save21. I asked the guy whether a complete BRMS save was the equivalent and he wasn't sure. He needs to ask someone else.
For the record, this is a list of the BRMS exit points done every Friday morning in restricted state:
Backup List ASP Activity Object While
Seq Items Type Device SMTWTFS Detail Active
10 *EXIT *DFTACT
20 *EXIT *DFTACT
30 *SAVSYS *DFTACT
40 *IBM *DFTACT *YES *NO
50 *ALLUSR *SYSBAS *DFTACT *YES *NO
60 UPSLIB *SYSBAS *DFTACT *YES *NO
70 QMPGDATA *SYSBAS *DFTACT *YES *NO
80 *ALLDLO *DFTACT *YES *NO
90 *LINK *ALLAVL *DFTACT *YES *NO
100 ALLSPLF *SPL *DFTACT
110 *EXIT *DFTACT
120 *EXIT *DFTACT
Is this the equivalent of a save21 or not? If necessary, I can provide a DSPTAP of everything on that tape.
Thanks.
