LODRUN '/OS400/AS400/INSTALL' - fails on V7R1

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

we are performing system copy of 4.6C (4.6D_EXT EBCDIC) system from V5R1 host to V7R1 host using backup/restore method   ( DBR3CP.R3S).

We performed the SAVLIB on the source system successfully.

Using the supplied CD 51014013 we execute the LODRUN command to load the R3SETUP from the CD and we get the error:

LODRUN *OPT DIR('/OS400/AS400/INSTALL')

Record contains a data field that is not valid

CPF0886

The LODRUN works ok on lower OS versions.

Is there a solution for this? Do I need to prepare the installation tools manually? If so, how is this done?

Thanks in advance,

Mark.

Hi Mark,

as you know, 7.1 is not really "fully supported" for 4.6C ...

So, I would suggest to use the following idea (which is a lot easier in my eyes):
