Re: Saving a *SAVF to another LPAR

[Bruce Vining <bruce.vining@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not sure about the reference to "uses special APIs". I would assume
they're using the Save to Application (QaneSava)
<https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_ibm_i_73/apis/QaneSava.htm>
 and Restore from Application (QaneRsta)
<https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_ibm_i_73/apis/QaneRsta.htm>
system
APIs.
