Re: ##EMailNumber 01-WNY-2138181 FTP & Save Files: RISC V4R2M0 to CISC V3R2M0

Hi Jorge!

I'm doing exactly what you describe. But you have to be very careful
about the release level of the objects. On the RISC machine you have to
create programs for the target release of V3R2 AND save them for that
release. There can be other objects that won't save for the earlier
release. Have you tried to determine which objects will not restore? You
should be able to see this in the job log. There is usually a pretty
good description of the reason it won't restore.
