Re: Simple way to tranfser library

Communications is not really my cup of tea, and I don't want to make any config changes or install anything new a week before we install the new replacement box, but SAVRSTLIB sounds very promising so I did try it. Unfortunately, I don't know what to put in the RMTLOCNAME field. I tried the system name (of the remote system), and I tried the IP address. No soap. If it's the LOCNETID of the remote system, well that may be a problem. It looks like the same LOCNETID is used on both the local and remote systems (and maybe other systems too).

Is there a simple way to copy a library to a remote (300 miles away) iSeries? I know I can do:

Create SAVF
SAVLIB to SAVF
Create SAVF on remote system
Lather:
FTP SAVF to remote system
RSTLIB on remote system
CLRSAVF on remote system
CLRSAVF on local system
Lather, rinse, repeat (for each library)

I can do this but am hoping there's an easier, cheap (i.e. free) alternative. We're upgrading to a new Power 7 and I need to copy some libraries over to a remote i5 until the upgrade is complete, and then copy them to the new system. I'd really rather not install anything new on the old box, to accomplish this.

As always, any and all responses are welcome.
