Tips: Independent ASP

 

If the user-defined file systems in an independent ASP have not yet been converted to the *TYPE2 directory format, they will be converted the first time the independent ASP is varied on to a system installed with V5R2 or later of the operating system.

For planning purposes, an estimate function is provided in OS/400^® V5R1 to provide information about the length of time that a conversion will run. Before varying on the independent ASP to the operating system running V5R2 or later, run the following API on your V5R1 operating system when the independent ASP (named ASP_NAME) is varied on and active:

CALL QP0FCVT2 (*ESTIMATE ASP_NAME *TYPE2)
