\n

On this page you can find links to the main AS\/400 system manuals (IBM i – iSeries).<\/p>\n

The manuals are mainly in English and targeted at version 7.6 of the operating system.
\nThe complete list can be found at the following link:<\/p>\n

General AS\/400 manual list<\/a><\/p>\n

The list visible at this address is a list of links to all AS\/400 manuals available from IBM. In some cases, if clicked on, the links do not lead directly to the PDF manual but to a web page where the desired information can be consulted. If you prefer to read the manual in PDF form (downloadable), you will find a link at the top of the first web page shown.<\/p>\n

Links to the main manuals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The first link we propose is for basic AS\/400 system operations. Explains the operations to manage videos, printers, jobs, etc. It also explains switching the system on and off, command structure, basic safety information, etc. Definitely, a starting point for those who want to start using or managing the AS\/400.<\/p>\n

Basic operations<\/a><\/p>\n

In the general list mentioned above, you will find manuals on specific topics of AS\/400 management (security, communications, storage, backup, encryption, performance, maintenance, TCP\/IP, etc.). These are not popular texts. They are aimed at users who already possess at least a minimal knowledge of AS\/400.<\/p>\n

Let us now see the links to the manuals for programming<\/strong> activities on the AS\/400 system.<\/p>\n

At the following links, you will find manuals for preparing video formats<\/strong> and for detailing the DDS (Data Description Specification), i.e. the specific keywords describing the video with their parameters.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>Video AS\/400 (DDS)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

These, on the other hand, are the links for preparing prints<\/strong> in ‘Basic’ format (without graphics).<\/p>\n

AS\/400 Printing<\/a>
\nAS\/400 Printing (DDS)<\/a><\/p>\n

The manuals in the following links explain how to create and process AS\/400 archives<\/strong> (files) (DB2400 tables).<\/p>\n

AS\/400 Archives<\/a>
\nAS\/400 Archives (DDS)<\/a><\/p>\n

The following links point to the two manuals for writing programmes in the RPG ILE<\/strong> language.
\nThe explanations are aimed at the RPG-Free version (the most recent), which evolved from the RPGIV version. The ‘Reference<\/strong>‘ aims to show all individual commands with a detailed explanation of the instructions.\u00a0The ‘Programmer’s Guide<\/strong>‘, on the other hand, explains how to build an RPG programme and how to run it.<\/p>\n

RPG ILE Reference
\n<\/a>RPG ILE Programmer’s Guide<\/a><\/p>\n

RPG<\/strong> programmes can encapsulate SQL<\/strong> code. The following link takes you to the manual that sets out the explanations for this type of programming.<\/p>\n

SQL embedded in programmes RPG<\/a><\/p>\n

The following two links point to manuals for SQL programming, for reading\/editing DB2400 tables and for constructing Store Procedures. Here too, the ‘Reference’ is aimed at explaining the individual SQL statements.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>SQL Reference<\/a><\/p>\n

For COBOL<\/strong>, Java<\/strong> and C<\/strong> programming, please refer to the list of manuals mentioned at the beginning where you will find specific manuals.<\/p>\n

We also refer to the API (application programme interface) manual. These are functions that can be called up outside the direct control of the operating system to achieve results that AS\/400 commands do not allow.<\/p>\n

API<\/a><\/p>\n

Lastly, we would like to point out that there is, for the more advanced technicians, a collection of manuals called Redbooks<\/strong>.
\nThe IBM Redbooks are a series of technical publications created by IBM and selected industry experts. They provide in-depth guidance on IBM products, solutions and technologies. They can be consulted at this link:<\/p>\n
