Re: Transfer libraries from one box to another

And now for something completely different!

Look into /QFileSvr.400 off the root of the IFS. This is a point where you can 
mount another iSeries' IFS and see it on yours machine. Non-file objects cannot 
be moved or copied, but files can, including SAVFs. I think you just 

MKDIR /QFileSvr.400/other-system-name

I don't remember whether it is an IP name or what - do a search at 
www.iseries.ibm.com/support on QFileSvr.400 and see what it says.

It will let you copy (or move?) save files - put a 3 on the file and prompt it 
and fill in the local destination. You could even automate this, including the 
restores.

And if you realy wanted some whiz-bang, start the REXEC server on the target 
machine and use RUNRMTCMD to it from the source machine - you can run your 
restoresm tec., that way from one machine.

Whady'all think, eh?

Is the parrot dead?
