Jim's right. Creating your directories and files in certain existing IBM
directories is going to be trouble.

It's not like IBM spun the random wheel to flag a directory as
ALWSAV(*NO). They picked them on their intended contents, log files for
example.

Be careful of just trying to change the IBM directories to ALWSAV(*YES).
IBM has a history of setting IFS attributes at each IPL. Several of us
had to give IBM a serious beat down to stop flagging /tmp with
CHGATR OBJ('/tmp') ATR(*RSTDRNMUNL) VALUE(*YES)
at every IPL as that immediately put a stop to email from working.
Maybe they've amended their ways and no longer do changes this way but I
don't know about other directories and the ALWSAV option and how they set
that. So it's something to be aware of.
