Subject: Re: Sending Files from System i Navigator - Change Target Path

Can someone tell me if there's a way to change the target path in
the "SEND" function within the System i Navigator? I want to
copy the contents of a library from one lib to another, but when
I click on SEND, the system will not allow me to change the
destination.
I simply want to copy all files from within QSYS.LIB/LIBA.LIB to
QSYS.LIB/LIBB.LIB without having to do them one by one. I cannot
delete the library and recopy into it as it still have some
development libraries that are in use. I need test data for our
QA Dept. so they can do a 1:1 comparison test of resulting data.
Is there not an easy way to do this without having to jump
through a million hoops?
No clue about the "SEND" feature, but when not using a CMS to
implement what is described, very often a /better/ option is to
avoid "copy" features by effecting instead, a "save\restore" of the
objects and\or data; e.g. something like:
crtsavf liba
savobj *all liba *savf (*file /* or *all, or etc. */)
savf(liba) dtacpr(/* as desired */) updhst(*no)
rstobj *all liba *savf (*file)
rstlib(libb) option(*all) mbropt(*all)
savf(liba) alwobjdif(*filelvl) /* refresh all *FILE */
/* or for example, one or more of: */
rstobj *all liba *savf rstlib(libb) option(*old) mbropt(*new)
savf(liba) alwobjdif(*filelvl) /* new members only */
rstobj *all liba *savf rstlib(libb) option(*new) mbropt(*all)
savf(liba) alwobjdif(*filelvl) /* new files only */
On releases where supported, consider including the option to
save private authorities with the objects, to carry those to any
*NEW objects that are restored. I believe the QDFTJRN *DTAARA
"feature" may also enable better options\results for restore, on
newer releases.
