Check Creation Date of Object on IFS drive to decide wether to delete or not
Hey at all,
I've been looking the web for several days now without being able to find a satisfying answer to my problem.
Ideally I don't want to work with an API, and want to know if there is any functionality given within the iSeries.
I plan to have a CL programm checking our IFS drive every night running through every single object (mostly Invoices etc.) and check the creation date in order to
delete every document which is older than a given timespan.
I read that there are several commands to view some attributes (CHKOBJ, WRKLNK, DSPLNK, etc.), yet there doesn't seem to be a documentation
which describes the field names or variables those functions give back to the CL programm in order to compare the retrieved values with the condition they shall meet.
I really appreciate any piece of advice you can share with me concerning a solution to this.
Thanks, Mace.
