RE: IFS Quirk

Release info is public:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/rzahg/rzahgmtu.htm

Even if it wasn't the customer doing the upgrade should have been able to get
you the info.

That was the problem, I guess they upgraded from 5.2. I
created DDS and problem solved. I don't have access to the
release info as we dropped support on our 400 long ago.

Hi Jon,

<snip>
I have a customer who went to V5R4 over the weekend and now

a file that

get copied to the IFS with CPYTOIMPF daily is shifted and

when I view

it via wrklnk, I am getting a message at the bottom of the screen
saying "File CCSID incorrect". Anyone else seen this before?
</snip>

Take a look at the memo to users (probably better to do this

before you

upgrade though <grin>).

IIRC there is a mention of CCSID issues for CPYTOIMPF if you

use a file

defined with no CCSID (65535). these are created when you

create a file

and specify a record length rather than using DDS. But I'm

sure this is

a NEW restriction introduced in V5R3. What level did your

client upgrade from?

Anyhows, maybe this is causing your issue.

Cheers

Larry Ducie
