About this task
To access your
IBM® i integrated file system (IFS)
files, you make a connection as you normally would to your
IBM i server, and from there, you can access the IFS. If you have never
created a connection to an
IBM i server,
see the related link, and then complete the following steps. If you already
have a connection to an
IBM i server,
then just complete the following steps:
Results
Restriction: If you want to use the Save As option
for an IFS file, it is recommended that you do so using the Remote System
LPEX editor. This way, the new file is created and saved on the IBM i server. If you want to perform the same function with an editor
other than the Remote Systems LPEX editor, the Save As option
will not save the file on the IBM i server.
As a workaround, you need to create a new file, or use copy and paste, and
then save the file, otherwise your changes could be lost when you close the
workbench.
