Transferring data from one iSeries to another




 We have 2 iSeries Servers, 1 for Production, 1 for Development. I have been asked to refresh our production data libraries on our Development System on a regular basis. My thought is to create a Save File of the data libraries on our Production System then FTP the Save File to our Development System and then Restore the libraries.
My question is: Are there other methods I should investigate?
Thank You,
Bill Poulin
There are certainly other methods that can be used, but what you describe is simple and timeproven. It also happens to be what I (tend to) use when moving data between systems 🙂 It beats media and, if you don’t need real time replication of data, gets the job done.

May I suggest a one-step method, ObjectConnect using SAVRSTLIB or SAVRSTOBJ.


There is a little of prep work to do, like ,


* You need to install licensed program 5722SS1 option 22,
* Change network attributes to “Allow Anynet support” to *YES
* Create a host table entry on host system for target system with valid IP address with host name of targetsysname.SNA.IBM.COM
* Create an APPC controller on host and target systems using this


CRTCTLAPPC CTLD(XXXX) LINKTYPE(*ANYNW) RMTNETID(SYSTEMB) RMTCPNAME(ANYNET)TEXT(‘AnyNet connection to system SYSTEMB’)  

XXXX = the controller name  

RMTNETID = the remote systems name  

RMTCPNAME = the remote control point name


* Then finally create or modify the Remote Configuration list for QAPPNRMT:



```
CRTCFGL TYPE(*APPNRMT) TEXT('AnyNet TCP Connection list') <<ENTER>>
```

or



```
CHGCFGL TYPE(*APPNRMT) <<ENTER>>
```

REMOTE LOCATION= the target system name.  

REMOTE NET ID: APPN  

LOCAL LOCATION: The local systems name is found by issuing a DSPNETA.  

REMOTE CONTROL POINT: Is the same control point that was used when creating the controller.  

CONTROL POINT NET ID: APPN

well, transferring your data and transferring that and your settings are different. data, such as music, letters, video, pictures can burn to disk or copy/move to external drive. installed applications won't go, you'll have to reinstall from disk or download. on the other hand, you can transfer settings, favorites etc. use files and settings transfer wizard. or laplink software and cable. hi hien and welcome to the community.do you take full image backups of your oracle servers (virtual/physical)? in this case please do not use file 2 tape but create machine to tape jobs to directly copy the image backups.you can then arrange your available tapes in media pools and export one of the media sets you’re using.you can configure how long you want to protect data on the tapes until it gets overwritten.from the gui you can use a media set only for one weekbefore switching to the next one.you can also look into gfs media pools and use weeklies (append data to unfinished).you can use powershell however to automate everything around exporting if you like or do that manually. also you can monitor exported tapes in vaults.hope that makes sense. tape handling can be a bit of a fuss.however, you might want to have a look on the scale-out backup repository and capacity tier where you can copy your backups to an object storage repository with immutability and thus you can avoid the tape handling and you can already get an off-site copy of your daily backups.(e.g. 42 days retention, with copy to object storage from day 1, immutability for 42 days,and move to object storage after day 14 will give you 14 days of local backups for fastest restores and the rest online and immutable on the object storage). you might be able to use synchronize. if you have more than 2 tables, you will need to use it multiple times. so if you want to be able to run them as separate runs, you’ll still need some way of communicating between them. one mechanism we provide for that is by serializing daml values as json through the --input-file and --output-file options to daml script. so in your case, you should make sure that the … all shared projects do is inject the shared files into the projects that use them — essentially as if you just added the same file to both projects manually and had two icons show up in the tree for it. given how swift does name spacing, for each project the file will compile so that its types go in… hi,we have no formal “copy file type and template” from environment test to prod.this is what i’ve done hundreds of times.assuming you created a new file type or copied an existing template. - do this same process in prod (or the other environment), ideally keep the same name and description - just keeps things clean.then update the tabs so the file separator and date formant is the same. if you created any external file template controls update this as well,finally, - in the file template details, i delete all records in the new prod, and then use the copy / past object to copy the details from test to prod. rather than analyzing to see what’s different in the details between test and prod, if we know test works, i would typically delete the details and copy object from test to prod.if you had any formula in test you can manually copy these as well. it’s a few steps, but it only takes a couple minutes. best regards,thomas Please see: [How do I schedule a task to update indexes?](https://qa.mythicsoft.com/14733/how-do-i-schedule-a-task-to-update-indexes?show=14733#q14733) Not currently, but there's an idea thread for it!

mabye the flow can be adopted to following:

assign:

leftside: drresult (datatype: datarow)

right side:

dt\_datepv.asenumerable.orderby(function ( r ) datetime.parseexact(r(0).tostring.trim, “dd.mm.yyyy”, system.globalization.cultureinfo.currentuiculture.datetimeformat)).last()

is there an easy way to detect when new code is flashed to the device so i can reinitialize the retained variables?

below is a link to a post by [@rickkas7](/u/rickkas7) about storing retained data in a struct.
