When you use option 23 from the GO SAVE command menu, the default is to place your system in a restricted state. If you choose the prompting option, you can cancel the display that puts your system in a restricted state.

For procedures where the system does not require a restricted state, ensure that the system can get the locks necessary to save the information. You should put your system in a restricted state whenever you save multiple libraries, documents, or directories, unless you use the save-while-active function.
