This is exactly what I needed to know. I guess I never read the secondary
text. Thank you.

As for all of the libraries, it is a dev machine and they turned on save
while active to reduce the amount of time that the developers would be
locked out. On the weekend, the full backup runs for about 11 hours and who
knows when it will hit which libraries. This way we are only locked out for
30 minutes at 04:30 when nobody is on anyhow instead of being locked out all
morning.

Thanks again for the info.

Do you see
CPI3724 - 0 of 3 libraries processed.
CPI3724 - 1 of 3 libraries processed.
CPI3724 - 2 of 3 libraries processed.
CPI3725 - Save-while-active checkpoint processing in progress.
CPI3712 - Save-while-active checkpoint processing complete.


The text for CPI3724 is
Cause . . . . . : The save-while-active operation has now locked the
objects
in 1 libraries. Checkpoint processing will begin when objects in all 3

libraries have been locked.


vs CPI3725
Cause . . . . . : The save-while-active operation has now locked the
objects
to be saved in all the libraries.


So for the first 30min, the system is allocating all objects in a given
library one library at a time. Are you getting any objects not saved?

500 libraries is an awful lot for a *SYNCLIB save-while-active.

Are all 500 really active?

You might be better served by creating a SWA control group for the say 5
libraries that are active and the save the others without using SWA.

We have a backup that is using save while active. The backup starts

at

04:30 and there are about 500 libraries in the backup. About 05:00,

there is an entry in the joblog "Save-while-active checkpoint

processing in progress". About 5 minutes later there is an entry

Save-while-active checkpoint processing complete.







My question is during the 04:30 - 5:00 window, are the libraries

locked or can the system still function normally? Or, is the only

really unavailable window the 5 minutes at 5:00?
