Generic Archive Utility for iSeries/AS/400
| See also: Support Pages for Frequently Asked Questions, Latest PTF Releases and Amendment Register |
The Generic Archive Utility is designed to automate the process of removing and storing historic information from your iSeries/AS/400 database, keeping your system up-to-date and running more efficiently.
You can use the utility to compile sets of files into individual archives and define rules and criteria to select records for archiving. You can choose exactly when to execute the process of submitting an archive run, so that the archiving process does not impact on system performance at critical times. You can also choose to run the archive during normal working hours as a low priority task, as this utility does not have to run in an exclusive or restricted state.
