How to Copy and Paste a Name from the AFP Resource Installer

Here are the steps that the user must take to copy and paste the CMR name from the AFP Resource Installer:

  1. On your workstation, start the AFP Resource Installer
  2. Use the Select menu item in the Library menu on the menu bar to open the server resource library where the CMR resides. The server resource library will appear in the top pane of the AFP Resource Installer.
  3. Select the server resource library in the top pane and use the Expand Selected menu item in the Views menu on the menu bar to show the CMRs that reside in the server resource library.
  4. Select the CMR.
  5. Use the Properties menu item in the Actions menu on the menu bar to open the Properties notebook for the selected CMR.
  6. Copy the CMR Name shown in the Properties notebook.
  7. Paste the CMR Name into the PPFA source code.
    Note: You may have to break the name up if you are using a platform that restricts the input source line length to less than 73. For example PPFA on z/OS restricts the input line to 72 bytes. In the PPFA code example below, the name is split over two lines with 42 and 31 characters each. In this case you would first copy the first 42 bytes of the name and paste them into line one, and then copy the remaining 31 bytes of the name into the second line.
