The integrated file system (IFS), along with the PASE runtime environment, gave IBM i users the ability to run applications that don’t follow the traditional library structure.
Today, IBM i shops use the IFS for image storage, web page HTML, GIT for source code project control, and more. The IFS can provide easy access for file exchanges between IBM i and Windows. But many don’t have the knowledge or tools necessary to manage this technology.
Watch this webinar to learn tips, helpful tools, and IFS commands— including Access Client Solutions (ACS), Navigator for i and SQL Services—for managing your IFS directories.
We’ll answer your most pressing IFS questions, including:
- What is stored inside my IFS directories?
- How do I monitor the IFS?
- How do I replicate the IFS or back it up?
- How do I secure the IFS?
Understanding how to work with IFS storage is critical. If you don’t have the time—or the desire to do it manually, we’ll also show you how the right tools can make it easy for you.
