Re: savrstlib cancel

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It was a comm err to get the sna negative response.
I did find that when i cancelled the savrstlib, i only cancelled 1 machine &
not process on the other.
Did that & restarted again & worked.
The ftp would have worked but taken more time to manage.
SAVRSTLIB & SAVRSTOBJ are wonderful cmds in a network of as400's.
No tape compatible with old to new machines. If you want the
the newer 1/4 in cartridge drives, many older tapes cannot even be read.
In this case old machine had 8mm & new was 1/4in. So whole
upgrade was in pieces, with just data at final conversion (last night).
