In answer to Brian Glynn's question on
downloading FRW file.
The fastest method I have for downloading files from the
AS/400 is a product from WRQ called Reflections for IBM.
I have been using this product for 2-3 years and when I first
started using it I found it hard to believe the download speed.
I can download our full IIM file with 10,758 records, 202
fields per record, with 1309 bytes per record. A total file size of
14,508,032 bytes in 105 seconds. My output is usually flat fixed length
text type files on the PC side.
I am doing this through a 10-Base-T ethernet connection using
TCP/IP and IBM's ANYNET at the AS/400 end. I have downloaded as much as
215MB in 15 minutes during off hours. All of this while the software is
converting packed numeric field in to flat ascii text. I think it very
fast.
