Yeah, like most MPE :-)

But seriously... there is the old adage of keeping your SLT + @[log in to unmask] +
@[log in to unmask] (and possibly a few other system accounts, the list grew
with some posix additions) as part of your "system" backups.  If you
carry this into your "user" data backup cycle, you might want to exclude
those filesets.

If you do volume sets, you might look into the ONVS= to control which of
your volume sets are backed up.
