Gio:
That command saves the entire IFS except for IBM directories,
(QIBM/ProdData*), the QSYS file system, and DLO.
Modify your command to look like:
SAV DEV('/qsys.lib/qgpl.lib/savf_ifs.file')
OBJ(('/mydirectoryIwanttosave/filesIwanttosave') 
That will save the directory and the files underneath it.   Since you
specify the file and directory, you do not need to exclude the other 
items.
Use the "*" wildcard as needed, so to save everything under the directory,
use:  '/mydirectoryIwanttosave*'
For anthything below the root be sure to grab the directory structure too,
or restoring is going to be a challenge unless you rebuild the directory
structure manually.
