Re: savrstlib cancel

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

I think you can download a couple different varieties of ftp versions of 
SAVRST...
However, if it is the restore that fails you have to decide how to handle 
it.  Some of the ones I've seen leave the save file out there until you 
rectify the restore.  I think that's ideal.  Avoids that comm lag.

Re: savrstlib cancel






It was a comm err to get the sna negative response.
I did find that when i cancelled the savrstlib, i only cancelled 1 machine 
&
not process on the other.
Did that & restarted again & worked.
The ftp would have worked but taken more time to manage.
SAVRSTLIB & SAVRSTOBJ are wonderful cmds in a network of as400's.
No tape compatible with old to new machines. If you want the
the newer 1/4 in cartridge drives, many older tapes cannot even be read.
In this case old machine had 8mm & new was 1/4in. So whole
upgrade was in pieces, with just data at final conversion (last night).
