Full-release installation instructions

Choose a save-file library (librname) and your desired WRKDBF product library (productlibrary). The installer defaults to WRKDBF, but the product library can be different.

  1. Back up the existing installation, if applicable, and extract WRKDBF11.zip on the PC.
  2. Create the IBM i save file:
CRTSAVF FILE(librname/WRKDBF11)
  1. Using FTP in binary mode, upload WRKDBF11.savf from the PC into the IBM i save file you created.
  2. Restore the installer into QTEMP:
RSTOBJ OBJ(WRKDBFINST) SAVLIB(WRKDBF) DEV(*SAVF)
       SAVF(librname/WRKDBF11) RSTLIB(QTEMP)
  1. Prompt (F4) and run the installer, specifying your chosen product library:
WRKDBFINST PRDLIB(productlibrary) SAVF(librname/WRKDBF11)

After installing the full release, apply the latest PTF/fix package below.

PTF / fix installation instructions

This procedure replaces objects in your existing WRKDBF product library. Do not rerun the full-release installer for a PTF.

  1. Back up your current WRKDBF product library and extract WRKDBFUPD.zip on the PC.
  2. Create the save file on IBM i:
CRTSAVF FILE(librname/WRKDBFUPD)
  1. Use FTP in binary mode to upload WRKDBFUPD.savf into that IBM i save file.
  2. Restore all objects from the PTF save file over the corresponding objects in your actual WRKDBF product library:
RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(BREGERI) DEV(*SAVF)
       SAVF(librname/WRKDBFUPD) RSTLIB(productlibrary)

productlibrary means the library where your WRKDBF product is installed; it is not necessarily named WRKDBF.

Current fully updated release: V11.09.04.
