Save System and User Data using Option 21

[dcutaia]

Hello,

Is there a way where we can automate the Save System and User Data option 21 feature? I am an ISeries System Admin and the company I work for can't afford the Robot product. I know I can create the commands in CL to save the License code, OS400 and other libraries but I was looking for some different methods. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

David C

Well you could always use IBM backup

Type in go backup and take a look there


You can so as you said
create a cl program to endsbs qinter
hldjobq qbatch etc........

then savlib *NONSYS
syssecdta
savcfg
savsys

...........use rtvsysval QDAYOFWEEK ??

Run different saves on different days of the week


we have a backup program here @

http://www.code400.com/backup.php

you could play around with this


Let me know if I can help
