The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
We use virtual tape regularly for these adhoc requirements, then ftp the
volumes to wherever we want.

Subject: Space required for SAVSYS
Sent by: "MIDRANGE-L" <midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
My apologies in advance for my ignorance of some of the systems operations
as I so rarely perform them. :)
If I want to do a SAVSYS at V7R3 (prior to OS upgrade), and save only the
system (not any 3rd party libraries) any idea how much space I need, and
can this be done to a thumb drive on a power 8 system?
I've looked around and using a save file doesn't appear to be the best
option for this, and I'm guessing that a DVD may not be big enough. No
tape drive on this system either. I have tested thumb drives and they
seem
to work fine.
I also have seen about the PTFs required for thumb drives over 32GB that
are required.
Or, if I am barking up the wrong tree entirely, feel free to tell me that
as well.
Thanks.
