The Save Source Files command allows a save of all source files in
one or more libraries to tape or all source files in a single library
to a save file. The system save commands allow only a save of *FILE
objects and do not allow the saving of just source files.
You must have *SAVSYS special authority to use SAVSRCF.
A typical command would be:
SAVSRCF LIB(LIB1 LIB2) DEV(TAP01) CLEAR(*ALL)
All source files in LIB1 and LIB2 would be saved to TAP01.
SAVSRCF escape messages you can monitor for
--------------------------------------------
TAA9891 No source files exist
Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.
Command parameters *CMD
------------------
LIB Up to 300 libraries may be specified.
If no source files exist in any of the libraries, an
error occurs. If some source files are saved, but a
specified library does not contain any source files,
no error occurs.
DEV The device where the save should occur to. *SAVF
must be specified if a save file is to be used.
SEQNBR The sequence number to start the save operations.
The default is 1. A specific sequence number may be
entered in a range of 1-99999. For more
information, see the same parameter on the SAVLIB
command.
ENDOPT The end operation for the device. The default is
*REWIND. *LEAVE or *UNLOAD may also be specified.
For more information, see the same parameter on the
SAVLIB command.
CLEAR Whether to clear the files on the volume beginning
at the sequence number described. *NONE is the
default meaning no active data is cleared. If an
active file is encountered, an inquiry message will
result.
*ALL may be specified to clear all files.
Expiration dates will not be considered.
The following values are the same as various SAVxxx
commands. For more information, see the same
parameter on the SAVLIB command.
*AFTER may be specified to clear all files after the
first volume. An inquiry message occurs if active
files exist on the first volume.
*REPLACE may be specified to clear all files the
same as *ALL.
SAVF If DEV(*SAVF) is specified, a save file must be
named. The library defaults to *LIBL. *CURLIB may
also be specified.
EXPDATE The expiration date to be used for the output media.
The default is *DAY3 which means 3 days from the
current date.
*PERM may be entered to make the file permanent.
The special values *DAY1, *DAY2 ... *DAY60 may be
entered to cause an expiration date of 1, 2 ... 60
days from today.
A specific date entered in job format may also be
used.
DTACPR Whether to use data compress. The values are passed
thru to the SAVLIB command. For a complete
understanding of the parameter, see the SAVLIB
command.
The default is *YES to compress the data.
*NO may be specified so the data will not be
compressed.
*LOW may be specified to compress to a low degree.
*MEDIUM may be specified to compress to a medium
degree.
*HIGH may be specified to compress to a high degree.
COMPACT Whether to use compaction as the output is written.
The default is *DEV meaning to use any data
compression offered by the device.
*NO may also be specified. For more information,
see the same parameter on the SAVLIB command.
TGTRLS The target release to be used for the save. The
default is *CURRENT for the current release. For
the other options, use the command prompter.
UPDHST A *YES/*NO option for whether to update the save
history information for each object saved. *YES is
the default.
*NO may be specified to bypass updating of the save
history.
SAVACT An option to determine if an object can be updated
while the save is running. The default is *NO
meaning the objects cannot be updated. If objects
are locked exclusively or for update, they cannot be
saved.
The other values that may be entered are *LIB,
*SYNCLIB, and *SYSDFN. See the SAVLIB command for a
complete description of these values.
SAVACTWAIT The amount of time to wait for a commit boundary.
The default is 120 seconds. See the SAVLIB command
for a complete description of the parameter.
SAVACTMSGQ The qualified name of the message queue to send
messages to if SAVACT(*YES) is specified. The
library defaults to *LIBL. *CURLIB may be
specified.
CHKSAVRST A *YES/*NO option for should the TAA Tool CHKSAVRST
command be run. The default is *YES. The CHKSAVRST
command will produce a spooled file of the S/R
messages which have occurred during the job.
ERRORSONLY A *YES/*NO option for should the CHKSAVRST command
ERRORSONLY option be used. *YES is the default.
The default is designed to further 'net out' the job
log. The printed listing will essentially take the
library completion message information and print a
summary. If any objects were not saved, the detail
message will appear in the job log if the *YES
option is taken. The entry is ignored if
CHKSAVRST(*NO) is specified.
