Send a file or folder to another system

Follow these steps to send a file or folder to another system.

Expand the system that you want to use in iSeries™ Navigator > File Systems > Integrated File System. Continue to expand until the file or folder that you want to send is visible.
Right-click the file or folder and select Send. The file or folder appears in the Selected Files and Folders list of the Send Files from dialog.
Expand the list of available systems and groups.
Select a system and click Add to add the system to the Target systems and groups list. Repeat this step for all the systems you want to send this file or folder.
Click OK to send the file or folder with the current default package definitions and schedule information.

When you create a package definition, it is saved and can be reused at any time to send the defined set of files and folders to multiple endpoint systems or system groups. If you choose to create a snapshot of your files, you can keep more than one version of copies of the same set of files. Sending a snapshot ensures that no updates are made to the files during the distribution, so that the last target system receives the same objects as the first target system.
