RE: SAVSYS and SAV IBM-Supplied Directories

["Andy Nolen-Parkhouse" <aparkhouse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rob,

Perhaps we're talking about different things.  I interpret 'IBM-supplied
directories' to refer to those directories (and their contents) which
IBM supplies as part of a licensed program, such as Domino.  Some of the
directories in your list are part of the base file systems and would not
meet that criterion, even though they are supplied by IBM.

Someone interested in saving their system for disaster recovery should
save everything.  If you want to save a particular application like
domino, then save:
- the libraries.                                (e.g. QNOTES, QUSRNOTES,
etc.)
- the user data.
(/lotus/domino/servername/)
- the IBM-supplied directories. (/QIBM/ProdData/Lotus/Notes and
/QIBM/UserData/Lotus/Notes)

That was the context of my reply anyway and that was how I interpreted
Jorge's question.  It could well be that I am wrong and that IBM places
similar information directly in the root.  I was under the impression
that IBM was trying to stick to this standard.

Thanks for questioning my accuracy.  In this case, I suppose the true
question is what did Jorge mean when he asked the question?

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
