You can't directly change the status of a spool file. The spool
file status is set by the system based on some event taking place. For
example, you could ask the system to hold a spool file by using Option 3 (HLDSPLF) from the Work with Output Queue display. You didn't directly change the spool file status from RDY to HLD, you "held" the spool file and the system changed the status from RDY to *HLD (HLD).
The same concept holds true for status SAV. The system changes the status of
a spool file from RDY to SAV after it has been written by a writer job with
the SAVE(*YES) attribute set.
SAV is a status indicator for a spool file, showing that the file was
written and then held. Therefore, you can't change it directly.
