Sounds great in theory Mike but you need to keep the custom files separa
te from the standard ones.

You should just store the logicals in the library with the phys= icals.
Then
the restore will work and you wont have to wo= rry about juggling library
lists.
If you have a= multiple environment situation, you probably have a
consolidat= ed data file library anyway.

S= ubject: RE: [SYSTEM21] Creating PF's or LF's
Bill,
<= /TT>
The IBM Redbook "Geac System 21 - Implementation for AS/400" is= an
excellent
resource http:/www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg2= 45967.html
and has great examples of naming conventions. = See Chapter 11
(Customization) and page 390 for specifics.
<= /TT>
One other thing to consider is if you create logicals over Syst= em 21
physicals you might want to have custom libraries with a = name that is
lower
in the iSeries sorting order.
<T= T>Our custom libraries all start with the first letter of 'Z'. The
re= ason for
this is in the event of system restore resulting from = a disaster, a
disaster
test, hard drive failure, etc. when you = restore your libraries it is
generally done via a RSTLIB *NONSY= S or some equivalent method. These
methods
restore the librarie= s alphabetically starting with 'A'. The restore can
not
restore= logical files if the physicals do not already exist on the
system.
</TT= >
In our case all of the System 21 and other libraries will be resto= red
before
any of our custom 'Z' libraries.
I h= ope this makes sense as it is a very important concept. Worst case
is that if you did not use this library naming convention you wou= ld have
to
manually recreate or restore all of your logicals af= ter everything else
was
restored in a disaster. However, = you usually have plenty of other
things to
keep you busy in a d= isaster and this would delay recovery.

It's common practice to suffix the file or program with a U. = eg. OEP72U
Also to put the object into a non GEAC lib= rary. Eg. OSLRICP3 for
programs
or OSLRICf3 for fil= es.
Associate a program with a task number in the 99xxxx ra= nge.
I hope that this helps.
Marcus.
