RE: AFP promotion using Aldon LMi

["Stone, Joel" <Joel.Stone@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Aldon's response is that LMi is not capable of promoting source for AFP overlays.


Surely someone must have a workaround as this is one of the popular s/w lifecycle managers on the iseries and AFP is also popular.

Any suggestions on how to promote *OVL source with the *OVL object using Aldon LMi?

The problem seems to be that IBM stores the source in a data file instead of a source file like RPG and CL.

Thanks

Call Aldon (Rocket) Support.  If you do it first thing in the morning 
you've got a better chance of immediate attention.

Or e-mail them now and you might have an answer by tomorrow.
