INSTALL SAPCAR in server AS400 IBM

[Former Member]

I have a problem, i try to upgrade the kernel and when i execute this command:

CALL QP2SHELL PARM('/QOpenSys/usr/bin/csh' '-c' 'SAPCAR.EXE -xvf ILE.SAR iletools ILE_TOOLS;iletools')

Nothing happend,  still not exist the SAP_TOOLS library, i search logs in WRKSPLF but dont find something related to the error .

I think the error is because the SAPCAR is not installed on the server like a library, i just use SAPCAR.EXE for execute the command.

Someone know the steps to install SAPCAR or using it in AS400?

Please help.

Note

The SAPCAR.EXE and ILE.SAR are in the same folder.

[christoph_ostrop]

there are 3 kind of sapcar for IBM-i

1. ILE-version

2. Hybrid-version

3. PASE / ifs-only version

maybe this one is the easiest sapcar to use: (see note 1804799)

Yes, has the correct version.

I use the next command

CALL QP2SHELL PARM('/QOpenSys/usr/bin/csh' '-c' 'ZINST/SAPCAR/SAPCAR.EXE -xvf ILE.SAR iletools ILE_TOOLS;iletools')

"/ZINT/SAPCAR/" is the directory where the SAPCAR.EXE.

  The above command should work well? or I need to make some settings with SAPCAR for use as a library in AS400 Server?.

Please help.

Hi Ana,

Can you copy SAPCAR.exe to a different folder like AA and then copy this file called SAPCAR.exe and rename it to SAPCARNEW.exe and the other SAR after that then run the command from there SAPCARNEW.EXE -xvf <  .SAR FILE>
