Title: LPD/LPR on CMOD
Post by: chuckalugk on March 28, 2019, 07:22:22 AM

Hello,

We are in the process of migrating from EOS to CMOD.  EOS receives AS400 reports via LPD/LPR on the mainframe, where EOS has a listening port and virtual print queues.    Does CMOD have this capability?  If not, what would need to be done to retrieve the AS400 reports?

Thank you.

CMOD has arsjesd for receiving print output from the mainframe via the JES spool, if you can make that work.  Otherwise, you'll need an LPD/LPR listener to receive files.  It might make sense to post a question on the iSeries forum about this as well.

We have multiple companies that load spooled files from IBM i to z/OS or MP.  They run the load process on the IBM i system and the indexes and data are loaded on the z/OS or MP system.  Documentation can be found in support item 7014901 at ibm.com.  The document was last updated at v9.5 but the same techniques apply to v10.1.

Of course, Darrell's solution is best - run arsload on the iSeries, and load it directly into the CMOD server.  :)
