Currently it is not possible to submit a full system backup to
batch, which is what the Job Scheduler would do. The SAVSYS portion requires
a dedicated system in a restrictive state and must run from the system
console -- interactively. The SAVLIB *NONSYS command has this requirement
also.
There are several very good third-party backup solutions that provide ways
to run the SAVSYS process unattended. They provide a program to interface
with the system console while the system is in a restrictive state.
I've configured processes on our system that run backups unattended every
night -- except for the last Sunday of the month. That is when I apply PTFs
and run a full system backup, including running the SAVSYS process from the
console -- interactively. Every other night, I programmatically quiesce the
system and initiate Save_While_Active backups of user libraries using
BRMS/400. It works quite well. ==================================
