You must vary off the network servers. You can perform this option from the GO SAVE command menu if you select option 21, 22, or 23. Select the network servers you wish to vary off from the Specify Command Defaults screen.

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.
