Mirroring Help/Systems Products

Before You Begin

Use the following information to set up mirroring of your Help/Systems products.

  • If you are restoring any Help/Systems product libraries, RBTSYSLIB must be the first library restored to the target system. Then, call RSL062 to create the required user profiles.
  • When mirroring Help/Systems products, the product cannot be active on the target system.
  • You must change the system name in the product database files for the following products before you can run the products on the mirrored system. Use the Retrieve Network Attributes (RTVNETA) command to retrieve the target system name. Then, enter the Change System Name in Files (RSLCHGSYSN) command and specify the target system name in the Current system name field.

The tables on the following pages provide detailed information for mirroring each Help/Systems
product.

Notes:

  • You cannot use mirroring as a method of performing a “silent” update of a product. You must perform a product update or conversion on both the production (source) and backup (target) systems.
  • You should perform a complete install, or at least a full save and restore, of the appropriate product library to the backup/target system before you start mirroring.
