RE: BRMS damaged object

I ran the DSPOBJD before and after the save. BRMS still thinks the file is damaged but I can not find any way to verify that.

Herman, VIOS is 2.2.5 and this is a new issue with this file.
Yes, that VIOS is old but we are migrating the customer to a new POWER9 so no need to upgrade it.

Subject: RE: BRMS damaged object

Are you doing the DSPOBJD before, or after, the save?
Some years back we were having full system saves crash on certain Management Central objects. They were frequently getting damaged. We tried to check prior to the save by DSPOBJD, etc. However that damaged flag is not set until the object is tried to be saved. We got to the point of saving them to a save file prior to the full system save. If they were damaged we would delete them. Then we would proceed with the full system save. We had to do this for years, through multiple OS upgrades. IBM disavowed this was happening for a long time but they eventually got it fixed.
