Member of object - which type, which atribute?
Have you try copy member (or object) an then delete it in test?
If you talking about source member, you can use PDM (STRPDM command), an then your source copy to production library and compile it.

==================================================

Of course SAVOBJ didn't work. That's not what SAVOBJ does. SAVOBJ only puts objects into a container suitable for transferring to another system. Usually, the container is a savefile object.

Once the savefile holds the object, you have to transfer it. And once it's transferred, you have to restore it. It's like putting a PC program into a .zip file. That's just the first step. Then you have to send it somewhere. And then you have to unzip it.

For transfer, you can use FTP, or you can use FTS, or you can use sftp, or you can use /QFileSvr.400, or you can use /QNTC, or you can use DDM...

Technically, if you have the communications set up, FTS is probably the easiest. I invoke it right against the member in PDM and the member goes straight to the target system with all attributes intact including member text. It even creates the source file if one doesn't exist.

Next easiest is probably the SAVRSTOBJ command. That eliminates the intermediate savefile and also does the transfer for you.

But I'd be a little troubled by someone moving CL members into my production system who doesn't already know how to transfer between systems...

What exactly is your question? Are you needing to learn communications between systems? Are you trying to learn differences between versions/releases of two systems?

I can used strpdm command if the test and production enviroment at one machine (am i correct??) but the problem is i have two different machine, one for test environment and one for production. :( and of course i can copy and delete the member at test environment.

this is the type

Member . . . . . . . . : ULREPORT
File . . . . . . . . . : QCLSRC
Library . . . . . . . : USRINDIV
Member type . . . . . . : CLP

the test machine have V5R2 version, and the production V5R1 version. is the different of version make a problem for me???

thanks.

Yes, correct (for STRPDM command). In that case, you can use SAVOBJ command, but in Target release parameter you must type V5R1M0 if you save object on V5R2M0 system and want restore to V5R1M0 system.
With SAVOBJ command you can save object that contain member, not only member.
You didn’t tell me what type members do you want save.
For all I know, iSeries haven’t command for saving members, you must save object that contain members

the type of the member is CLP.
“For all I know, iSeries haven’t command for saving members, you must save object that contain members” i agree with u, i have already try command savobj

=======================================================
this is the command and the result before i upgrade the test machine.

SAVOBJ OBJ(QCLSRC) LIB(USRINDIV) DEV(TAP01) OBJTYPE(*PGM) FILEMBR((QCLRSC (ULREPORT))) OUTPUT(*PRINT)

and the results at spool is
5722SS1 V5R1M0 010525 Save Object - Object Information HODEV270 27/07/05 9:30:16 Page 1
Device . . . . . . . . : TAP01
Target release . . . . : V5R1M0 Storage . . . . . . . : *KEEP
Save access paths . . : *NO Save file data . . . . : *YES
Data compressed . . . : No Data compacted . . . . : Yes
Expiration date . . . : *PERM
Library . . . . . . . : USRINDIV
Save date/time . . . . : 27/07/05 09:30:16
Object Type Attribute Saved Size Owner Text
ULREPORT *PGM CLP YES 53248 PAXUS CL - Summary Report Produk Uni

USRINDIV YES 1 0 AIGL USRINDIV 1 1 QSECOFR 991232 SSD - Proses P
* * * * * E N D O F L I S T I N G * * * * *
==========================================================
am i make a mistake command???
i want to moving object including the member but the results after i restore to production is just compile results program.

if i can’t used savobj, can i used ftp??? if yes, i never used ftp command how can i use that command?

thanks

Try with this command, source file QCLSRC contains your members and this should work:
SAVOBJ OBJ(QCLSRC) LIB(USRINDIV) DEV(TAP01) OBJTYPE(*FILE) SEQNBR(1) TGTRLS(V5R1M0) DTACPR(*YES) OUTPUT(*PRINT)

!!! But before saving, you must initialize tape, here is the sample of command:
INZTAP DEV(TAP01) NEWVOL(BACKUP) NEWOWNID(QSECOFR) CHECK(*NO)

With this SAVOBJ command you do not need specially include members.

This can be done also with FTP, but I think that this is simpler.
