Many objects are created as a result of installing a logical operating system in a partition and using virtual storage.
Some of these objects are server-related, others user-related. You need to save them all if you want to restore properly. You can save these objects by using options of the i5/OS® GO SAVE command in the server. Option 21 saves the entire server. Option 22 saves server data (which includes objects in QUSRSYS). Option 23 saves all user data (which includes objects in QFPNWSSTG).
If you want to save a particular object, use this table to see the location of that object on i5/OS and the command to use. Manually saving parts of your server has more information about using the save commands.
