Re: where are stored procedures on IBM i

[Alan Campin <alan0307d@xxxxxxxxx>]

Depends what kind of stored procedure. If it is an External Stored
procedure you will have a SQL component in the database and an RPG
component. Is this other system an IBM i. If not, you are out of luck. They
would have to be re-written for the target system.

If they are written in 100% SQL, they are just in the database.
Access Client has tools for retrieving the SQL for a procedure or function.

If you are doing a version upgrade, you do a backup and restore the backup.
All the database objects are restored. You better get somebody who knows
how to do a version upgrade before you create a mess.
