Sam,

Yes you could get it to work, but to what end? The process saves an object (there are several SAVRSTxxx commands) sends it to another machine using APPN communications, then restores the object. I don't understand what the value is. If all you want is a copy of a library(ies) then use a save file or virtual tape.

In my former job I was using SAVRSTLIB to send objects between testing

guess I assumed SAVRSTLIB was part of the operating system...

Now I'm on a single partition machine. If so, can I still use SAVRSTLIB
to make a copy of a library? I suspect not.
