Toolkit Generic Move Commands

Move commands have generic versions in Toolkit, which move the source for objects. These generic commands also allow you to log the movement of objects and source, to archive previous versions of source/objects, and to preserve object authorities. You can move all objects or selectively move only new or existing objects.

Note: Toolkit protects your data by requiring an archive library when you move physical files.

The generic move commands include:

• YMOVM—Move Members. Use to move a list of source members, including archiving if specified.
• YMOVOBJ—Move Objects. Use to move a list of objects, including preserving authorizations if specified.
• YMOVOBJSRC—Move Objects and Source. Use to move a list of objects and corresponding source members, including preserving authorizations if specified.

For more information:

• On using the generic commands, refer to the CA 2E Toolkit Reference Guide.
• On an overview of generic moving, refer to the Generic Processing section of the "Programmer Aids" chapter of the CA 2E Toolkit Concepts Guide.
