		M e s s a g e			S u m m a r y
Msg id	Sv Number Message text
*RNM0508 00		1 /COPY compiler directive found.
		Cause . . . . . :			In order for this RPG IV source to
		compile correctly, ensure that all /COPY source members
		included in this source member have also been converted to
		RPG IV.
		Recovery	. . . :		Ensure that all /COPY source
		members are converted prior to compiling in RPG IV. In some
		cases, problems may result when attempting to convert and
		compile source members that make use of the /COPY compiler
		directive. If this situation results, specify *YES for the
		EXPCPY parameter on the CVTRPGSRC command to expand the
		/COPY member(s) into the converted source. For further
		information see the ILE RPG for AS/400 Programmers Guide.
*RNM0511 00		1 CALL operation code found.
		Cause . . . . . :			RPG specifications that contain CALL
		operation codes have been identified because the user may
		wish to:
		-- change the CALL operation code to CALLB to take
		advantage of static binding
		-- convert all programs in an application to RPG IV.
		Recovery	. . . :		Convert the CALL
		operation code to a CALLB if you wish to take advantage of
		static binding or convert the called program to RPG IV if
		you wish to convert all programs in an application.
*RNM0506 30		1 FREE operation code is not supported in RPG IV.
		Cause . . . . . :			The RPG III or RPG/400 program contains
		the FREE operation code which is not supported in RPG IV.
		Recovery	. . . :		Remove the FREE operation and replace
		it with alternative code so that the programming logic is
		not affected prior to compiling the converted source.

AS/400 specifications

The IBM AS/400, now known as the IBM iSeries, is a midrange computer system that has been a cornerstone of enterprise computing since its introduction in 1988. Designed to provide a robust platform for business applications, the AS/400 is celebrated for its reliability, scalability, and integrated database capabilities.

One of the key features of the AS/400 is its Integrated Operating Environment, which blends hardware and software resources seamlessly. This integration allows businesses to execute diverse workloads, ranging from traditional applications to modern web-based services, all on a single platform. The operating system, OS/400 (now IBM i), offers a rich set of APIs and tools for developers, simplifying application development and management.

Another standout characteristic of the AS/400 is its built-in database, DB2 for i. This powerful relational database management system allows for efficient data handling and provides advanced features such as support for SQL, XML, and JSON, making it easier for businesses to manage their data and integrate it with other systems. The database's tight integration with the operating system enables high performance and security.

In terms of scalability, the AS/400 can accommodate small businesses as well as large enterprises, with the ability to support hundreds of users simultaneously. Its architecture allows for easy upgrades in hardware, meaning that organizations can scale their systems without replacing the entire infrastructure.

Security is another critical attribute of the AS/400. With a sophisticated security model, it offers built-in user authentication, access control, encryption, and auditing capabilities to protect data and applications from unauthorized access.

The AS/400 also supports multiple programming languages, including RPG, COBOL, Java, and PHP, giving organizations the flexibility to choose the development tools that best fit their needs. This diversity helps maintain legacy applications while also developing new ones that leverage modern technologies.

Moreover, the platform supports both traditional green-screen interfaces and modern graphical user interfaces, allowing organizations to transition smoothly into contemporary user experience paradigms.

Overall, the IBM AS/400 stands out as a resilient, flexible, and secure computing platform that enables organizations to effectively manage their business operations, streamline processes, and adapt to changing market demands. Its unique combination of integrated features and capabilities ensures that it remains relevant in today's fast-paced technology landscape.
