This topic contains a list of links to save commands or APIs that you can use to direct output to an output file.

• QSRSAVO - Save object API

• SAVCFG - Save configuration

• SAVCHGOBJ - Save changed objects

• SAVLIB - Save library

• SAVOBJ - Save object

• SAVSAVFDTA - Save save file data

• SAVSECDTA - Save security data

• SAVSYS - Save system

The following topics describe the output information that these commands create. To specify an output file, have *CHANGE authority to the database file and *USE authority to the library. The system needs an *EXCLRD lock on the database file. Click the command above that applies to the information that you would like to save. The control language (CL) provides descriptions for the three parameters that allow you to direct save output to an output file: File to receive output (OUTFILE), Output member options (OUTMBR), and Type of output information (INFTYPE).

• Output file information
