Sending network files

 

The only objects you can send with the Send Network (SNDNETF) command are database file members or save files. The SNDNETF command creates a save file and copies the information into it.

The network file is not included in save operations on the destination system until the network file is received. Once the file is received using the Receive Network File (RCVNETF) command, the copy on the source system is not saved. Consider backing up the information on the destination system.

Other objects (such as programs or commands) must be saved in a save file before they can be sent using the SNDNETF command.

Do not use save files to save objects on a system at the current release to distribute them to a system at a previous release unless TGTRLS(*PRV) is specified on the save command. You may also specify TGTRLS(VxRxMx) on the save command, where (VxRxMx) is the previous-release-value. The current release to previous release rules still apply.
