Changing options for a package definition

 

A package definition allows you to group together a set of i5/OS® objects or integrated file system files.

The package definition also allows you to view this same group of files as a logical set, or as a physical set, by taking a snapshot of the files to preserve them for later distribution.

To change the options for the package definitions, follow these steps:

  1. Complete the steps for Sending a file or folder to another system.

  2. Click the Options tab. The default options are to include subfolders when packaging and sending files and to replace an existing file with the file being sent.

  3. Change these options as required.

  4. Click Advanced to set advanced save and restore options.

  5. Click OK to save the advanced options.

  6. Click OK to send the file, or click Schedule to set a time for sending the file.
