So you need to put ZIP and UnZIP on your System i? Here is how to do it. I found this usefull.
Link –> Bringing Zip and Unzip to i5/OS PASE and QShell Environments
Zipping documents and directories has become a common practice. It is also possible to use the Zip functions in Portable Application Solutions Environment (i5/OS PASE), with a little help from AIX. This tip provides the steps for bringing the Zip and Unzip functions to your System i server.
Chris is the coolest. He offers up some C code for the System i to get a disk status. I am learning at the masters feet. Now I need a scratch System i to test it on?
This is good stuff Chris. Nice Job! I am just going to streal it now and post it here too if you don’t mind.
I like this article by Doug Mewmaw. I think we all can relate.
“I would like to share some neat tricks of the trade and best practice techniques that I’ve used over the years that ensured my systems were running smoothly in regards to memory. We’ll assume that the machine pool faulting is within the best practice guidelines–under 10 faults per second.”
I just wanted to post a link I use from time to time and still find usefull. It’s the link to the Information Doc at IBM that helps you configure print or ASCii devices on your System i5.
