Also, are these V7R4 only? It looks to be.

Thanks, Birgitta. Sorry for being an SQL dunce with these functions, but
how would you enter that into SQL command line to test it? I always forget.

SQL can do it!
It may only depend on the release and/or Technology Refresh you are on.
The following SQL Statement will calculate the MD5 or an IFS File.

Values(HASH_MD5(Get_Clob_From_File('/home/Dir1/Dir2/YourIFSFile.txt')));

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Subject: Calculate MD5 Hash for Stream File

anything new in the realm of generating an MD5 hash for a stream file in
the
IFS?

It looks like openssl may be the easiest... then just output the data to a
stream file and read it in?

Wanted to make sure there weren't any SQL functions that may make it
easier
and avoid needing to read in and parse a stream file.
