Hi,

My old box have a tcp connectivity, I was thinking to use save files to transfer data to power7 box and I'm having v4r3 in my old box. 

I have the source codes of all old programs. So I guess that will b ok.

This is absolutely a source code migration. You can restore the files 
and convert them as has been mentioned. The source code is required for 
this migration as well as the S36 versions of the compilers. The S/36 
OCL will run in the S/36 environment.  If you have ALL of that then you 
can do a migration.

You will need some flavor of tape compatibility to get that data moved 
or a very old machine that supports M36 and then configure 
communications between the M36 and OS/400 to move the stuff. Wow my head 
hurts just trying to remember THAT configuration...
