That message is not really an error. It's a "I did not save this because
you told me not to" statement.
On that particular directory IBM has set those attributes so truthfully I
would not mess with them. If IBM set them that way, they have a method of
recreating what is needed for a recovery. In the ProdData directory (As
opposed to the UserData directory) there is very little if any "user data"
(read non-IBM) that needs to be saved if IBM marks the file in that way. The
UserData directory and it's subdirectories are a different matter and should
be backed up.

Subject: Cannot save many IFS objects
Hello sages
I have noticed that our daily (nightly actually) SAV_IFS routine produces a
joblog with errors like:
Cannot save /QIBM/ProdData/OS/SQLLIB/bin.
Cause . . . . . : The ALWSAV attribute on /QIBM/ProdData/OS/SQLLIB/bin
was set to *NO preventing the object from being saved.
or
Cannot save /QIBM/UserData/HTTPA/admin/logs/INSTALLATION_V85Base.
Cause . . . . . : The ALWSAV attribute on
/QIBM/UserData/HTTPA/admin/logs/INSTALLATION_V85Base was set to *NO
SAV_IFS comprises of the CMD
SAV DEV('/QSYS.LIB/TAP01.DEVD') OBJ(('/*' *INCLUDE) ('/QSYS.LIB' *OMIT)
('/QDLS' *OMIT) ('/Some_NFS_Mounted_Directories' *OMIT)) SAVACT(*YES)
Now, should I omit all of /QIBM ? part of it?
shall I set all object's ALWSAV to *YES ?
I would sure like to save the entire IFS including /QIBM
TIA
Gad
