RE: Looking for IFS query summing up directories flagged as "do not save"

Rob,

Not exactly what you're asking for, but BRMS has a " Missed Object Policy"
Would this help.

Specifies the name of backup control group and lists used to track
missed objects during backup control group processing. If the backup
control group or lists do not exist, these will be created using the
same attributes as the current backup control group.

Note: You must have object level detail specified with a *ERR,
*YES, *OBJ, or *MBR for the control group entry in order for the
missed object function to work.

Paul

Subject: Looking for IFS query summing up directories flagged as "do not save"

IBM often flags directories as do not save. Mostly these are directories
which are transitional log files, and since save-while-active on IFS is a
cruel hoax, they do a
CHGATR OBJ('/myibmdir/logs') ATR(*ALWSAV) VALUE(*NO)

Since I've recently ran a RTVDIRINF and that has populated the files shown
by
WRKOBJ ROUTINES/QAEZD* *FILE

I am wondering if any of y'all have already created a query of those files
to sum up any directories flagged as not to save? The logic being if the
logs are expendable can I get a list of them to analyze and perhaps delete
to clean up space?
