GO SAVE command menu options

 

This information describes the GO SAVE command and the most common menu options that you can use.

Access the GO SAVE command menu by typing GO SAVE from any command line. From the Save menu, you see option 21, option 22, and option 23 along with many more save options. A single plus sign (+) indicates that the option places your system into a restricted state, which means that nothing else can be running on your system when the menu option is selected. A double plus sign (++) indicates that your system must be in a restricted state before you can run this option.

• GO SAVE: Option 20 (changing the menu defaults)
  You can use the Save menu option 20 to change the default values for the GO SAVE command, menu options 21, 22, and 23. This option simplifies the task of setting your save parameters.

• GO SAVE: Option 21 (saving the entire system)
  Option 21 saves everything on your system and allows you to perform the save while you are not there.

• GO SAVE: Option 22 (saving system data)
  Option 22 saves only your system data. It does not save any user data. Option 22 puts your system into a restricted state. This means that no users can access your system, and the backup is the only thing that is running on your system.

• GO SAVE: Option 23 (saving user data)
  Option 23 saves all user data. This information includes files, records, and other data that your users supply into your system.

• GO SAVE: Options 40, 41, 42, 43 (saving parts of your system)
  You can use the GO SAVE menu options 40, 41, 42, or 43 to save parts of your system.
