Mandatory.

Default=Partition default file library name.

Rules

  • Library name must conform to object naming standards for the operating system.
  • When the library name is combined with the 3.1.3 File Identifier, it must form a unique name for the file.
  • This field is pre-filled with the partition default file library name. LANSA does not check whether the library specified exists or not.

Warnings

  • The library specified must exist and you must be authorized to use it. LANSA does not check whether the library specified exists or not.

Platform Considerations

  • IBM i: Avoid creating files that reside in your IBM i "current" library.

Tips & Techniques

  • The use of the same 3.1.3 File Identifier in different libraries is possible using LANSA. However it is strongly recommended that this procedure is NOT used. Instead it is better to install multiple LANSA systems to service different environments such as development and production.
