RE: Help! Where's PDM????

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

Only if you really muck up your migration

Otherwise they're there.
Object      Type      Library
WRKMBRPDM   *CMD      QSYS

Traditional way to 'HOSE' up your migration is to get a new machine from
IBM with just the base OS installed.  Then someone 'burns a number' and
tries just restoring the missing libraries, (and if they feel inclined, the
IFS directories, etc).

The right way is to bring the old machine up to V5R3 and following Appendix
D of the Backup and Recovery Guide.

Invariably some 'consultant' will try to convince people they can save time
by NOT doing the full unload/reload.  Then they spend a few weeks trying to
fix missing commands, authority issues, etc.

I see this all the time.  People get REALLY DEFENSIVE on how great this has
worked for them in the past, etc...  This ain't your father's iSeries.

For some reason, I thought that I heard that those commands do not reside
in QSYS anymore at V5R3. Maybe someone more in the 'Know' could enlighten
us on this.

Thanks,

That's it!!  The commands are not in our QSYS library.  They somehow must
not have been restored from our tape when we transferred our system.
Hmmmm....
