Re: Profiles, Filter Pools, and Library Lists

Vern,

Does changing the initial library list on the sub-system in WDSC effect 
the sub-system running on the iSeries at all?

TIA

I found multiple connections to be a reasonable way to manage library 
lists. You can have multiple connections to the same server under the same 

profile. You probably know how, but here goes - right-click on the 
connection, click on Properties, click on Susbsystems, then on the iSeries 

Commands tab. There you can set the library list for this connection. This 

setting propagates to all subsystems under that connection. You can 
right-click a subsystem, such as iSeries Commands or IFS Files, click on 
Properties, and then on Initial Library List. Making a change here affects 

all other subsystems, although it would appear that you could set it for 
each one, since it is editable in each subsystem. Sigh!

So, if you can have only one profile active at a time (is that why you had 

to jump around?), then using multiple connections might give you what you 
want.
