<div><p>A server interoperates with another server when you exchange data
|
||
|
|
or when you save and restore objects. Review the supported combinations of OS/400<sup>®</sup> and <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> releases. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>Interoperability</strong> is the ability of one system to exchange data or
|
||
|
|
objects with another system. The exchange can
|
||
|
|
be performed electronically or by physical media (such as tape). Either system
|
||
|
|
can initiate the exchange.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>A server interoperates with another server when it exchanges data or when
|
||
|
|
it saves and restores objects. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If you have several servers in a network, they must be at compatible releases.
|
||
|
|
This is necessary if objects and data are to be interchanged between systems.
|
||
|
|
You can use option 10 (Display licensed programs) on the Work with Licensed
|
||
|
|
Programs menu (type <samp class="codeph">GO LICPGM</samp>) to see the installed release
|
||
|
|
of your licensed programs.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>The releases on servers must all be supported when data is exchanged</strong></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The source system (the system that sends the information) and the target
|
||
|
|
system (the system that receives the information) must be within the supported
|
||
|
|
releases.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For example, PCs that have V5R4M0 IBM<sup>®</sup> eServer™ iSeries™ Access for Windows<sup>®</sup> installed
|
||
|
|
support functions on servers running <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> (OS/400)
|
||
|
|
V5R2 or later.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>Requirements for saving and restoring objects to be interoperable with
|
||
|
|
previous releases</strong></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To be interoperable, objects must be saved by specifying either a specific
|
||
|
|
release or *PRV for the value of the target release (TGTRLS) parameter.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can save and restore licensed programs just like other objects as long
|
||
|
|
as the release is compatible with the operating system release. <a href="rzahcswslpsze.htm#rzahcswslpsze">Licensed program releases and sizes</a> contains
|
||
|
|
more information about compatible releases of licensed programs.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For more information on supported combinations of <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> (OS/400)
|
||
|
|
releases or saving objects to a system that is running a previous release,
|
||
|
|
see the section on release-to-release support in the <a href="../books/sc415304.pdf" target="_blank"> Backup and Recovery</a> <img src="wbpdf.gif" alt="Link to PDF" /> manual.</p>
