Steps to remove code from scheduled Releases
Simple steps to archive Turnover objects using Turnover Change Management for IBM i ( and the older iSeries / AS400 machines)
TO – Turnover Menu
Option 9 – Work with Projects and Tasks
Create a Worklist and then Checkout program at top level (presumably your production level)
Option 46 – Add to form (on object library you want to remove objects)
This will create a new form and make sure you add recompiles
Resequence the form . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . N Check for logical files and add them to the form . . . Y Check cross-reference file for related objects . . . . Y Check for objects changed by other programmers . . . . N
F21 – Select all Recompiles
Note – Always select application you are using on – Cross Reference application Selection screen
Now we have a form created and ready to do something to all those checked out objects. We can just go and update the form to DELETE
Option 42 – Edit form
Change each object on form to mark it as a DELETE request (dont worry because Turnover will archive the object to its archive library before it *deletes* the real one)
F7 – Update Top
Change Code to ‘D=Delete’
Repeat for each object on form
Update form and return to work list:
47 – Run Form Verify the program source/object have been removed from targeted library and objects are checked in from your worklist.
