Re: Using CPYTOARCF to create zip files to send to Linux box

1. Found the jar utility and asked one of our IBMi users to check if it's
installed. It is. Can the jar utility be executed from a CL script which is
what we need?
2. Can't send directly to the Linux box because it's in the cloud and the
Power server on the internal network won't allow that. The Windows box
however over a VPN

But seems that I have a solution

Thanks

Why bother with the Wiindoze box? Just use theIBM i to send direct to the

I need to transfer some 20G of text files each night to a Linuz server

to access the Power server (on 7.3) via SSH, grab the zip file and then
SFTP to a remote location. That Linux remote location would then unzip

the

files and make them ready for an ETL process into a Data warehouse.

Some of the non iSeries guys were asking if the zip file created by IBMi
would be compatible with standard zip files and I think they would be I
thought I would check here first.

Thanks for any feedback.
