It’s highly likely most of those files are marked that way by IBM since the LPP can recreate as needed

Ordinarily not a problem.

If “user” meaning not IBM files are marked that way they should not be needed for a recovery.

I'm trying to clean up my IFS backups and I've had problems in the past with objects not being saved because the attribute to allow an object to be saved was *NO.

I'm having a hard time grasping why I wouldn't want to save this object (or any object) on my system and why this attribute even exists. It just seems like a setup for failure.

If I change all the *NO attributes to *YES, am I causing the failure of some process or is this all just about saving space and time on my backups?
