Document Title
Using QFileSvr.400
Document Description
This document provides some general information on using the QFileSvr.400 file system on the IBM OS/400 or IBM i5/OS system. Detailed information on QFileSvr.400 file system can be found in IBM publication Integrated File System Installation (SC41-5711), including discussions of the job structure and useful debugging information. You may also find this information at the IBM System i Information Center. Simply visit http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/, select your operating system, and search on keyword QFileSvr.400 for complete details.
Description of QFileSvr.400
This file system allows the user to easily create a link to the Integrated File System directories on another OS/400 or i5/OS system.
Requirements
- o The QSERVER subsystem must be active on the target machine.
Message: CPFA0E7 - System cannot establish a communications connection with a file server.
Cause: An attempt was made to perform an operation on object /QFileSvr.400/IBMI5K60 that required interaction with a file server. However, the attempt to establish a communications connection with the file server was rejected by the remote system. One of the following has occurred:
-- The file server is not active on the remote system.
-- The version of the file server on the remote system may not be supported by the local system.
- o Your user-ID and password must match between the source and target iSeries systems. If your password does not match, the following message is received:
- Message: CPFA09C - Not authorized to object. Object is /QFileSvr.400/IBMI5K60.
Cause: You do not have the correct authority for object /QFileSvr.400/IBMI5K60 or for one of the directories in the object path.
Verifying if a Link exists
- From the iSeries command line, verify the link you are about to create does not exist under the QFileSvr.400 directory, by issuing the following command:
- WRKLNK '/QFileSvr.400/*' or WRKLNK '/QFileSvr.400/RemoteSystemName'
Creating a Link
- Use the MKDIR or MD command to create a new "Object link" (directory) under the QFileSvr.400 file system. The name of this directory should be either the TCP/IP host name or the SNA system name for the remote system:
- SYNTAX: MD DIR('/QFileSvr.400/RemoteSystemName')
EXAMPLE: MD DIR('/QFileSvr.400/IBMI5K60')
- Once the directory is successfully created, you should receive the following message:
Message ID: CPCA083 - Directory created.
Cause: Directory /QFileSvr.400/IBMI5K60 was successfully created.
Now when you run the WRKLNK '/QFileSvr.400/*' command, you should see your newly created directory under QFileSvr.400 file system. Select Option 5 on your directory to access contents of the target system.
