We've now been using this [SPLTOOL] for over 5 years. We've had, in that time, a sum total of 2 events that required us to seek help from you. In 5 years. 2 times. I don't think I 've ever had a software package anywhere near as stable. - Christopher J. Devous, Director of Systems Development, The Antigua Group


Is your software ready for V6R1?

Yes it is. We have checked the current versions of the following software to ensure it will be ready for V6R1:

The current versions of our software was checked using the IBM supplied Analyze Object Conversion (ANZOBJCVN) command running on V5R4.

 

Do you have a phone number we can reach you at?

In most cases the use of email makes it easier and faster for us to provide you with a solution to your problem or an answer to your question. This is especially true when job logs, commands and other technical information is needed.

Using email as the primary means of communication also allows us to keep costs down and pass those savings on to you. For over ten years we have use email as the primary means of communication and we believe that is part of our success in making sure our customers get their questions answered promptly.

Should a phone coversation be necessary, we are more than happy to contact you.

I just upgraded to V5R3. Are there any updates I need for any of your software?

IBM made some "security" changes to V5R3 and didn't make them very well known. This change affects almost all software that uses the /tmp directory for temporary storage. This includes BVSTools.com software like SPLTOOL, MAILTOOL and AFPTOOL.

To fix this, use the following command:

CHGATR OBJ('/tmp') ATR(*RSTDRNMUNL) VALUE(*NO)

Where can I find my machine serial number and model number?

Your serial number can be found using the following command:
DSPSYSVAL QSRLNBR

Your model number can be found using the following command:
DSPSYSVAL QMODEL

We just upgraded/replaced our AS/400. What do I need to do to register?

Because we do not charge a yearly maintenance/support/upgrade fee, you will need to purchase new registration keys for any software you wish to continue using. If you just purchased your keys recently (within a couple of months), contact us and we can discuss more details.

If your upgrade or replacement machine has a new serial number and/or model number, please email us the serial number and the model number of the machine no longer in use as well as the serial number and model number of the new machine so we can get new registration keys ready for you.

Please also be sure to let us know the total number of partitions you'll be running the software on for each machine.

I'm trying to upload one of your tools to my machine, but I can't figure out how to do it. Do you have instructions?

Yes! We have full instructions on how to upload our software to your machine using FTP. You can view these instructions by clicking here.

How do I determine the version of your software that I am using?

With any of our software, simply type the command on the command line, prompt on it, then move the cursor to the top line and press the help key. There you will see the version as well as contact information.

The OUTQTRG application is one exception. To find the version of this application simply type GO OUTQTRG on the command line and the version will be displayed at the top of the OUTQTRG menu display.
