3.12 LANSA IFS Directory Root Rename

Functional Description

The LANSA system is locked exclusively.

The new LANSA root directory is created.

The new directory name is set in data area DC@IFS in <<pgmlib>>

The OS/400 MOV command is used to move the directory tree from the old LANSA root directory into the new LANSA root directory.

The old LANSA root directory is removed.

The Java classpath stored in data area LJAVACP in <<pgmlib>> is updated to reflect the changes in the IFS directory name.

The LANSA system is then released.

Note: This program is not called from OS@P0007 3.7 Rename LANSA Libraries because the IFS root directory name may not match the program library name.
