Well me personally, I would be looking at whether I can down the product
(receives included) to get a save - but I tend to only save the HA software
libraries after a configuration change, or patching/upgrade of the
software. I don't quite get why the receive process needs to be active, if
you want to save the libraries, presumably they have told you this can stay
alive with no impact.

Why did you put the "if" on the question?
Because it is their own software. We hold the applies. I didn't say we
hold the receives.

So what locks them if not their own software ?
Not questioning your approach, just curious.

We do shut down the apply jobs.
The objects locked are not in our "data" libraries but are in the HA's
data library.

Hi Rob

why would you not shut down the HA apply jobs while you do your save or
at
least while you get a sync point for your SWA ?

and asked them what I am doing wrong.

Objects are locked by their software while following their
recommendations
for saving a target HA system.

I also asked them if it was an issue if the objects only get backed up
once a quarter during our restricted state save.

Rob,

I'm not aware of a list such as that because of IBM's favorite answer:
"It
depends......" and in this case it truly does.

You picked on two of the biggest object types in your note, but data
areas
would qualify as well on that list. Many folks love to read the data
area
into RPG with a lock, update it and release. If the save catches it
during
the lock, it will not back up the data area object.

UDFS falls into the "maybe" category. Again depends on the status at
the
time.

There are a number of other objects in the IFS that will not back up
when
open as well. That list is entirely depended on the system and what's
running.

Then again, you already know all of that.

Is there a list of objects which are normally skipped by Save While
Active
if they are still locked? *USRIDX and *USRQ objects seem to be an
issue.
Is there some IBM documentation somewhere on this?
