Sending Source Overlays and PFD Definitions
When you transfer a source overlay or a PFD definition to another AS/400 system,
you should not send it directly with the SNDNETF command. Instead, you should
send it as a saved file as follows. Otherwise, it will not be recognized as a source
overlay or a PFD definition on the destination AS/400 system.
On the source AS/400 system:
1. Create a save file.
CRTSAVF SRCOVLSAVF
2. Save a source overlay file or a PFD definition file.
SAVOBJ OBJ(SRCOVLFILE) LIB(OVLLIB) DEV(\SAVF) SAVF(SRCOVLSAVF)
3. Send the saved file.
SNDNETF SRCOVLFILE TOUSRID((USER NEWSYS))
On the target AS/400 system:
1. Create a save file.
CRTSAVF SRCOVLSAVF
2. Issue WRKNETF command.
WRKNETF
|3. Receive the file into the newly created save file with option 1.
4. Restore the save file:
RSTOBJ OBJ(\ALL) SAVLIB(OVLLIB) DEV(\SAVF) SAVF(SRCOVLSAVF)
Note: All source overlays or PFD definitions in the file are sent together.
