RE: Simple way to tranfser library

I'd save all those libraries into save files in one library, and then save
that library into a save file and do one big transfer. When you're ready,
FTP that big save file to the new box.

You can then restore what you need at will, and ensure that you've got the
new box set up with the proper ownership of the objects being restored.

Doing individual RSTLIBS as part of an FTP script can have curious results
at times.

Subject: Simple way to tranfser library

Is there a simple way to copy a library to a remote (300 miles away)
iSeries? I know I can do:

Create SAVF
SAVLIB to SAVF
Create SAVF on remote system
Lather:
FTP SAVF to remote system
RSTLIB on remote system
CLRSAVF on remote system
CLRSAVF on local system
Lather, rinse, repeat (for each library)

I can do this but am hoping there's an easier, cheap (i.e. free)
alternative. We're upgrading to a new Power 7 and I need to copy some
libraries over to a remote i5 until the upgrade is complete, and then copy
them to the new system. I'd really rather not install anything new on the
old box, to accomplish this.

As always, any and all responses are welcome.
