Hi all

D3 NT 7.2

On VME restore, all PEQS items are lost, of course, since they live in
DM. Has anyone found a way to permanently move the PEQS to FSI?

I achieve this programmatically by capturing the spooler number and
writing it to a FSI file. Looking for a more elegant way.

Thanks.

copy peqs *
to:(fsi:account,myfile,

Don't hold me to this, but I seem to recall that if the PEQS file is
defined as a "QS" (or was it DS? - I remember the suffix "S") file
then it will be saved and restored.
Otherwise a simple copy to an FSI save file before the save and
restore after will save the items - but losing the original date/time/
etc. info in the process.
I'm very curious as to the answer if there is one.
