Re: Retrieve Remote Object Description

What about

CRTDDMF QTEMP/A RMTFILE( LIB/FILE ) RMTLOCNAME( remote.loc.name )
SBMRMTCMD( 'DSPOBJD OBJ(SAVFLIB/SAVF) OBJTYPE(*FILE) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE)
OUTFILE(LIB/FILE) OUTMBR(*FIRST *REPLACE)

Then read QTEMP/A to retrieve the value that you are looking for.

Just watch for CPF9190s due to the DDMTCP attributes.
