In OS/400 V5R1, IBM expanded the size of the user library list from 25 to 250 library names. Because I use Ernie's utilities, I modified the CL source code to handle the new threshold.
The SAVLIBL and RSTLIBL utilities are built from four source members--two commands and two CL programs. The CL programs require Ernie's Forward Program Message utility, which is also created from a command source and CL source member. All required source members are listed in the table below.
| Source Members Required for the SAVLIBL and RSTLIBL Utilities | ||
| Member | Type | Description |
| FWDPGMMSG | CMD | Forward program message command |
| PGM007CL | CLP | Forward program message, command-processing program |
| SAVLIBL | CMD | Save library list command |
| LIBL007CL | CLP | Save library list, command-processing program |
| RSTLIBL | CMD | Restore library list command |
| LIBL008CL | CLP | Restore library list, command-processing program |
The only members that had to be updated are PGM007CL and PGM008CL, which you can download. Everything else you need is in the two articles referenced above.

He started in S/38 operations as a programmer "understudy" and was promoted to programmer/analyst around 1996. He's currently working on a Model 730 iSeries running V5R2, programming in ILE RPG and CL (Java is something he has in the morning to wake him up).
