If you currently have OS/400 version 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4
installed, download and install Expedite Base/400 4.6 as
explained below. This information is also available in the
Expedite
Base/400 Installation document, with additional screen
captures.
Create two destination save files on your AS/400. If
you do not, the restore process will not recognize the
files as being in the SAVF format. You must create both
destination save files in the same library.
Note 1: The LIBRARY name must be an existing
library in your system. If it is not, use the CRTLIB
command to create it.
For example: CRTLIB MYEXPBLIB.
Note 2: You can name the files EXPBLIBR
and EXPBLIBRM, or whatever you prefer. But if you currently
have Expedite Base/400 installed, then you probably
already have these library names in use, and you should
not overwrite them.
a. Enter CRTSAVF and then press F4 (prompt).
b. Enter the first save file name, the library
name, and press Enter.
The following is an example of the Create Save File
screen:
Create Save File (CRTSAVF)
Type choices, press Enter.
Save file . . . . . > EXPBLIBR Name
Library . . . . . . > MYEXPBLIB Name,
*CURLIB
Text 'description'. . > 'Expedite Base/400
V4R6 program and files'
c. Enter CRTSAVF and then press F4 (prompt).
d. Enter the second save file name, the library
name, and press Enter.
Note: The LIBRARY name must be an existing library
in your system.
The following is an example of the Create Save File screen:
Create Save File (CRTSAVF)
Type choices, press Enter.
Save file . . . . . > EXPBLIBRM Name
Library . . . . . . > MYEXPBLIB Name,
*CURLIB
Text 'description'. . > 'Expedite Base/400
V4R6 modules'
Download the two files
from the Web to a PC and unzip the files. For example,
if using pkzip, enter:
pkunzip expblibr46.zip
pkunzip expblibrm46.zip
EXPBLIBR46 contains the programs and files. EXPBLIBRM46
contains the modules. . (These zip file names may be called
something different)
Use
FTP to send them from your PC to your AS/400, as follows:
a. Open an FTP session from the PC to your AS/400
and use the FTP binary subcommand to set the mode to BINARY.
b . Make sure the current library is the library
where the SAVF files were created. If it is not, use the
FTP cd subcommand (cd MYEXPBLIB) to change the current
library.
Note: If you use the dir command to list
a library, the mode is changed automatically to ASCII.
Make sure to issue the binary subcommand again before
starting transmission.
c . Using fully qualified file names, use the FTP
put subcommand to transfer both files to the AS/400 system,
as follows:.
put expblibr [destination_AS/400_filename]
put expblibrm [destination_AS/400_filename]
Restore the two Expedite Base/400 4.6 libraries by issuing
the RSTLIB command for each save file, as follows:
To restore the expblibr file, type the following
command, and then press Enter.
Notes:
1) The fully qualified name of the save file that
you created in step 1 is library/fileid.
2) The SAVLIB parameter value of EXPBLIBR is the name
of the library where the files were originally saved.
This parameter is required and should not change.
3) The RSTLIB parameter value is the name of the destination
library, and EXPBLIBR, is a suggested name. You may
choose to use a different name for your environment,
but do not overwrite your existing EXPBLIBR library
if you currently use Expedite Base/400.
To restore the expblibrm file, type the following
command, and then press Enter.
RSTLIB SAVLIB(EXPBLIBRM) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(library/fileid)
RSTLIB(EXPBLIBRM)
Notes:
1) The fully qualified name of the save file that
you created in step 1 is library/fileid.
2) The SAVLIB parameter value of EXPBLIBRM is required
and should not change.
3) The RSTLIB parameter value of EXPBLIBRM is required
and should not change.
