I think you would generally omit: /QDLS, /QNTC and /QSYS.LIB

SAVDLO backs up old IBMi folder objects if I recall correctly.

Here's a useful link. Talks about BRMS, but relevant.

subject: Question on backing up the IFS

I thought when doing a SAV, that all IFS files/folders would be saved. I have not done this for many years and so yesterday I was trying to do a IFS backup, I found that SAV did not allow me to backup the folders.

Perhaps I need to play with the command more.

I want to backup some folders only and not system folders.

Is there a simple way to backup the IFS user folders?

TIA, Darryl Freinkel.
