When using the SAV command for IFS backup you can specify that oyutput of
what was save goes to either *PRINT, a user space, or an IFS STMF. The
latter 2 have the distinctly nasty problem that the object and directory
names are in Unicode, mixed in with EBCDIC (and hex) for the rest of the
stuff. So restoring from a list will not be friendly, IMO.

This may be a good reason to learn BRMS!  :-(
