Re: System Distribution Directory Entries - Save & Restore

[Jerry Adams <jerry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Can't completely answer the question, but maybe a little.

I ran WRKDIRE and then did a WRKUSRJOB on it from another session.  
Found that there were 3-4 logicals accessed by the program.  Tracking 
backwards found that these pointed to a physical name QAOKP01A in 
QUSRSYS.  Viewed that PF to be sure that it matched my perceived 
definitions - it did.

So, since the attributes of WRKDIRE appear to reside in a PF and in 
QUSRSYS the SAVSYS would definitely suck them on to the tape (or 
whatever).  It would seem that a restore of QUSRSYS would get them back.

Never had to do this so this is just a hypothesis at this point.
