The Configuration Assistant keeps your configuration data in a file called the backing store file. You can manage different sets of configuration information by keeping them in different backing store files.
The backing store files are all stored on z/OS DASD and managed by the Configuration Assistant. If you migrate from a previous release of z/OSMF the Configuration Assistant automatically transfers the backing store files from the previous release.
When you start the Configuration Assistant for the first time, the Configuration Assistant, the default backing store file named saveData is available to use.
When you press the Save button, all of the data is saved to that backing store file.
