Re: savrstobj questions

Glad to hear setting up EE isn't too big a deal. These SAVRST* commands are fantastic - I agree, it's also a degree of work to do the FTP thing - not hard, just there.

Anynet runs on 6.1 and 7.1 - it just not supported on 7.1.

Setting up Enterprise Extenders is not a big deal - certainly less
effort than replicating via code and FTP what SAVRSTOBJ gives you. Its

Those sites that gave up on SNA because Anynet support ended just
didn't do enough work to find out how to configure Enterprise
Extenders.

SAVRSTOBJ is mostly just like SAVOBJ and RSTOBJ on a single system. How
a restore works with LFs is the same as RSTOBJ. If you specify only the
PFs, that's all you get on the other side - unless you say ACCPTH(*YES),
right? You don't have to name the LFs in that case, IIRC.

PVTAUT is not a parameter on these commands - going to a different
system, I'm not sure you can count on much to be the same. There is no
information I could find as to what IBM uses for these commands.

Ownership goes to QDFTOWN if the owning profile does not exist on the
other side.

As Rob said, this depends on SNA - I forget if 6.1 still can use Anynet
- otherwise you need to set up Enterprise Extenders. It might be worth
it - the SAVRST* commands are a dream, so far as I'm concerned.

No TCP - unless you script some FTP, which isn't all that hard. Make a
CL that creates a SAVF, saves the objects as desired (you can use the
the PVTAUT parameter here), runs an FTP script (see documentation on
InfoCenter for more on this) which PUTs the SAVF on the target, then
QUOTE RCMD to run RSTOBJ on the target.

That's about it, as I recall - it's been awhile.

Hi Folks, any fans of savrstobj out there? Out OS is V6R1, can you gimme some answers and/or recommendations/suggestions?

How do you overcome authority issues on the target system (system where objects are restored)?

What authorities are assigned to the restored objects if does pvtaut=*no is specified?

Must alwobjdif=*all always be used if authorities are different on the source (system where objects are saved) and target system?

What about restoring only the PF's (not the LF's), will that cause any problems?

How can I use TCP to run the command?

Any info appreciated, as always.

Thanks, Frank
