Thanks for the kind words Tom and Mike.
One reason I didn't mention SFB is that I know it still has some bugs in
it when it comes to restoring saved NSS like GCS....it seems to handle
CMS and Linux NSS (at least for SLES11), OK, but GCS isn't restored
correctly.
The other types of spool data (IMG, RDR/PRT/PUN, NLS, etc.) can be
backed up and restored without problem.
One handy feature of SFB is that it backs up all RDR/PRT/PUN files for a
specific user into one easy to manipulate CMS file. Individual spool
files can be restored back out of the CMS file as well.
Have a good one.

Bullseye Mike. That's the one.
Dave should do a little more bragging, SFB is an excellent tool.
Thanks,

Or maybe I was dreaming.
VSEG-Plus does all that and more. It is a component of CA's VM:Spool, but
that was never a free download. It includes a number of CP mods as well,
which I'm pretty sure you would have remembered.
If you track down what you are looking for, let the rest of us know!
Some of can't even use SPXTAPE because we don't have tape drives.
