To transport a virtual image to another server, use one of the following methods.</p> <dl><dt class="dlterm">FTP</dt> <dd>You can transfer a virtual image from one server to another by using File Transfer Protocol (FTP). To use FTP you must have TCP/IP set up and running on your server. See <a href="../rzaiq/rzaiqrzairqgetstart.htm">FTP</a> for more information. For instructions on moving a file with FTP see <a href="../rzaiq/rzaiqtransftp.htm">Transfer files with FTP</a>.</dd> <dt class="dlterm">iSeries™ Navigator</dt> <dd>There are two ways that you can use iSeries Navigator to transfer files between systems. The easiest way to use iSeries Navigator is to drag the file from one server to another.<p>You can also use Management Central in iSeries Navigator to move files. Management Central is a powerful suite of systems management functions that make managing multiple systems as easy as managing a single system. For more information, see the <a href="../rzaih/rzaih1.htm">Management Central</a> topic.
