  • Updating the Driver Files
    1. Stop the driver and the Driver Shim instance.

    2. Download and unzip the contents of the IDM_AS400_4851.zip file to a temporary location on your computer.

    4. Create a Save File. At the terminal on your IBM i system:
    5.             
      CRTSAVF FILE(QSYS/PATCH)
      
      FTP the patch file into a *SAVF QSYS/PATCH on the as400.
      ftp <hostname>
      
      ftp> cd qsys
      ftp> bin
      ftp> put i5osdrv.sav patch.file
      
      You should get a message similar to this:
      200 PORT subcommand request successful.
      150 Sending file to member FILE in file PATCH in library QSYS
      226 File transfer completed successfully.
      ftp: bytes sent in seconds kbytes/sec.

    6. Restore the library. At the terminal:
    7.             
      DLTLIB LIB(NOVELLDIST)
      RSTLIB SAVLIB(NOVELLDIST) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QSYS/PATCH)
      DLTF FILE(QSYS/PATCH)
              
    8. Run the Update:
    9.             CALL PGM(NOVELLDIST/UPDATE)
