Re: Saving a *SAVF to another LPAR

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is correct, save files are not used with Object Connect. I haven't 
noticed any significant space usage on the source system and certainly 
not even close to creating a save file would use. Additionally since 
data begins moving almost immediately the entire run time can be less 
and it's clearly simpler!!
