Re: CHKIN/CHKOUT

Yes QDLS and QSYS.LIB and QNTC and friends appears with 3.1 which is when the entire IFS made it's debut. CHKOUT and CHKIN appeared at that time.

Prior to this the STUFF in QDLS was in something else that I can't recall the name of and as I recall was limited to a fairly minimal size as we tried to use them to back up PCs at one point. 32MB Maybe? (It certainly wasn't GBs as we had only 600 MB Total disk!!!

I think QDLS came into being as part of V3R1; I don't remember it on the
S/38 - but I do remember those weird virtual disks you got for transferring
under PC Support/38.

S/38? Are you sure?

I'm pretty sure that S/38 didn't have IFS.

Did the S/38 have QDLS?
