Update APIs typically are used for creating and configuring update entries
that are used to update files from a mapped network drive. It is important
to note that the Update APIs do not actually update the files, but rely on
the Directory Update executable file to do this.</p>
<div class="section"><p>For example, files on the iSeries system might contain customer
names and addresses. The files on your iSeries system are your master files
that are updated as new customers are added, deleted, or have a name or address
change. The same files on your networked personal computers are used to perform
selective market mailings (by zip code, state, age, number of children and
so on). The files on the iSeries system are your master files, and you want
them secure, but you need to provide the data for work.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>You could write a program that uses Directory Update APIs to create
and configure update entries, which would update the files located on your
networked personal computers.</p>
