RE: Simple way to tranfser library

True, only a single library can be saved to a savefile. I think the
original idea was to create a new library, create as many savefiles as you
need, and to push that single library.

Such as:
CRTLIB ZIPWORK
CRTSAVF ZIPWORK/LIB1
CRTSAVF ZIPWORK/LIB2
SAVLIB LIB(LIB1) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(ZIPWORK/LIB1)
SAVLIB LIB(LIB2) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(ZIPWORK/LIB2)

And then just FTP the ZIPWORK library, etc.

When I tried to do

SAVLIB LIB(library1 library2) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QGPL/mySAVF)

I got the msg CPF3789 ("Only one library allowed with specified
parameters.").

Can you do one save of all the libraries and one restore of all the
libraries? You are not limited to one library at a time.

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.
