Getting Started With AS/400 Backups

One of the really nice features of the operating system built into the AS/400, iSeries and IBM i power system platform are the backup and recovery tools that are built right in. If you are used to using the backup programs on a Windows type platform and find that it stinks for recovery purposes, using the backup tools on the IBM will be a very welcomed relief because they work flawlessly.

When it comes to saving your data you have multiple options, many of which can be confusing. In fact on the save menu it lists over twenty different save options. For the less adventurous among us there is no need to actually try out all of those save operations since they are redundant. You will only really need one for your main backup purposes.

For a complete system backup of everything you will use what’s commonly referred to as a “go save 21.” What this does is ends all of the subsystems, so you must be signed onto the console, and backs up the entire system including user objects and the operating system to your tape device or other device. Once finished it then starts up the controlling subsystem and you are up and running once again.

By using the options within this save program you can set it up to use features like the system reply list to answer any inquiry messages that may pop up, so you can virtually set the thing on auto pilot saving you from having to stand around for hours on end watching the screen go by.

Of course this is a point in time backup method, meaning it’s only good for restoring when you last ran it. Now unless you want to be running a full system save each and every day (which would be time consuming and unnecessary) then there are other options available so save specific sets of data objects and or libraries.

Typically your third party software package, ERP, EDI and so forth will come with some sort of utility or set of routines for getting custom data and program libraries and objects backed up onto a tape drive.

If they have no such program then check with the vendors support on what libraries and objects need to be backed up and then craft your very own backup program using CL and a combination of SAVLIB and SAVOBJ commands. You can kick off this program using the job scheduler.

One thing to note is that these save commands won’t save the data if users are actively using those objects. So at a minimum you need to boot the users off the system to remove any object and record locks preventing a backup from occurring.

Alternatively if getting folks to sign off is problematic then simply ending the QINTER and QSERVER subsystems is a good method of cutting off access entirely. But if you choose to do it this way then it may be a good idea to create your own administrative interactive subsystem to log in and start everything back up should your custom backup routine fail.

Be sure to check out John Andersen’s Power System Jump Start Training and discover how to simplify your AS/400, iSeries and IBM i power system backup routines.

How To Turn Off Apps And Save Your Iphone Battery

When I updated to the iPhone OS 4.0 I knew that it would allow me run apps even while I was using other apps. I thought it would be nice for the apps that send me push notifications to keep working all the time. So I updated the software and went on my merry little way. About a month ago I noticed my iPhone was running through battery life at an alarming rate. I knew something had to be up because no one hadnt been using my phone much and thats usually my guaranteed battery drain. I deleted apps, cleared off my camera roll and the battery life did improve. A little.

On Saturday my friend was looking for something on my iPhone and he discovered that I had at least thirty apps running in the background. He said something to the effect of dont you know how to turn off apps when you are done using them? I said yes, you just leave the app, tap the home screen button and be done with it. Well.apparently Ive been delusional because there are many apps that will continue to run even when youve left them. Which is fine if theyre apps that need to run but if you have a bunch that dont then your phone memory and battery life are going to suffer. There was my lightbulb moment of the week.

Perhaps Im the only one out there who didnt realize that I had so many apps working overtime for me. Here are the steps to truly shutting down an app just in case Im not the only one who didnt know how to do it.

* Tap the home button twice.

* At the bottom of the screen youll see a row app icons. These are the apps that are running. Slide your finger to move forward or backward through the apps. Chances are youll have more than the four that first show up.

* Touch one of the app icons and hold your finger on it until they all start wiggling. A small red circle will appear at the top left of the icon.

* Tap on the red circle and the app icon will disappear. The app is now no longer running in the background.

* When youre done shutting things down tap the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.

* Tap the home button again to return to your home screen.

* These steps will work even if you are currently using an app. In other words, you dont have to be on the home screen to bring up the row of running apps.

Now that I know how to manage them I can (hopefully) make better use of this feature. Go ahead, give it a try and see how many apps youve been running in the background!

Start Learning Hindi

Sign up to post in the forum. It’s Free.

How much do know about Hind? Maybe you will shake your head, meaning you know even nothing about this language. But now that you need to learn this language, you need to learn something about Hindi.

In India nearly all the people can understand Hindi. It is very common if you see they communicate in Hindi. However, 70% of the Indian people cannot write this language, even the college graduates who come not from Hindi speaking communities cannot do that either. It seems that this language form is very hard to touch as an official language of India. But don’t worry about it.

First, you can choose to India to learn this language. Of course this way maybe appears expensive, but probably efficient enough. When you go to India, you need to visit to the Hindi speaking communities if it is possible. Then try to learn from them. But how? You can try to get new friends from there. And when you get friends, you need to practise Hindi with them as much as you can. Yes, the first way for this kind of communication is through words and phrases. Truly you need to learn them step by step first.

Second, you must have a radio, why not use it to pick up the Indian Hindi signal to listen to. But you may say that you cannot even understand a word of it in the beginnig. It is real you cannot. You are not a Indian people after all. Then I think you need to buy a software, like Rosetta Stone Hindi, or go into some training class to learn first. It is the foundation learning. And in a training center, you have your teacher to guide you, then you can learn how to read Hindi, how to write Hindi words and so on.

Third, learning Hindi is not meaning learning its language only, but its culture as well. So many people have mentioned this aspect, but not all the people can really understand its importance and meaning. You can try to read the books about its culture. Or even sometimes you can learn its country’s geography or things like that.

Certainly using a software to learn a foreign language is good. Perhaps you want to learn other languages like Polish and Spanish. Rosetta Stone Polish and Rosetta Stone German can be very useful to you.

There are all sorts of things for us to learn. I love learning so much and have learned some fields as well. I like writing and reading, hoping I could share something beneficial here with all the partners.

The Right Bedding For Kids

Finding the right bedding for our kids can be quite the challenge. Unlike shopping for an adult, our kids are not interested in things such as the fabric of the bedding and explaining to them about the importance of the thread count. Children likes and dislikes are a lot more simple than our own taste. For children if it looks cool, or pretty, or cute then it is probably something that your children will have an interest in.

Kids are not exactly cut out for shopping for their own bedding because they will pick out the same type of things they do with everything else you try to buy for them. An excellent example of this would be my daughter how absolutely has to have everything with her favorite cartoon character sponge bob on it, she has sponge bob shirts, shoes, pants, make up kit and all the video games featuring sponge bob on them, she even has sponge bob breakfast cereal. Some one who is not a parent would wonder what the big deal is but, anyone who has experienced this knows that these fads that our kids have come about six times a year and once the fad is over the child can not have anything to do with it, if that they do they will face severe humiliation from their peers for being behind the pack. That is why when shopping for your kids it is important that you do not look for the name brands instead look for the more classical kids style bedding one great example of this is Olive kids bedding. All of their bed sets feature classic designs like their Olive kids Out Of This World which features a beautiful space design also they bring several other things like toddlers bedding for the really little ones and also duvet cover sets which is great because children are always somehow making a mess of their bed sets.

p> Want to find your own olive kids out of this world bed set. Or do you just want to know more about duvet covers Then go to Multi Shop Stop and check out there latest line of duvet cover sets

How to Use Facebook Apps to Their Full Potential

Sign up to post in the forum. It’s Free.

Facebook is one of the most visited websites on the internet. In fact, in terms of visitors each day, Facebook is second only to Google. This social media site has quickly changed the way a lot of people go about their day and for some, posting has taken over calling someone. If you’re not using Facebook apps to their full potential, you’re probably missing out on something that can make your experience even better.  

 

With almost 20 million visitors a day, Facebook is one of the largest advertising mediums available today as well. Companies are spending millions to try to harness the power of Facebook apps to draw in potential customers. You’ll find Facebook apps for everything from games to marketing tools. For most of the gaming apps, you’ll need a Flash developer, as no one wants to download a large software program anymore. In fact, most of the Flash developer apps for Facebook are becoming just as fast as a regular chatting.

 

If you’re entering into the social media marketing arena, there are several apps that can help. Some will help you design fantastic and exciting fan pages, while others can help you easily set up promotions, contests, and fan polls. These are a great way to keep your fans interested in what your company has to say and to sell. A flash developer can design a game that your fans can play, such as a multiplayer flash poker game. Poker is still one of the most popular games on the internet and with the right flash developer you get to keep your fans on your page even when they are away from their computer. These Facebook apps are designed to work on cell phones, iPods, and iPads, too. It keeps your fans in touch with your company no matter where they are.

 

When you start your search for a flash developer, you may want to ask your friends, family members, and business associates if they have any recommendations. Word of mouth advertising is very effective and most companies will agree it’s the best promotion they can get. It’s also one reason why the “like” button on Facebook is so popular! Some of the most popular poker games, such as Zynga, Glamble, Gambino, Perfect Poker, Grand Poker, and 6 Wave Poker were all developed by eChannel Networks. This is one company that is definitely worth a look.

 

Before you have a flash developer start any app for you, make sure everything is spelled out in a contract. This protects both you and the flash game developer should there be any problems in the future. In addition, the fees for any upgrades, patches, or bug fixes should also be included. An app is only useful if it works correctly!

 

In closing, if you’re considering add custom Facebook apps to your fan page, you should definitely hire the best developer you can find. Spending a bit more initially will usually mean you’ll end up with a better app in the end. There are also thousands of free apps available, so you may want to find one similar to the one you want designed to see if it garners the interest you think it should. This could save the cost of having a new app developed that doesn’t seem to popular.

eChannel Network provides you with the custom flash developer you need to get the exciting facebook apps that will draw fans to your fan page. Innovative, original, and exciting, these apps are what your fans want!

How to Formulate a Successful Mobile Marketing Strategy

Sign up to post in the forum. It’s Free.

 

Or Log in.

 

All successful mobile marketing campaigns start from the preparation of foolproof mobile marketing strategies. Without proper organization in this step, your campaign is doomed to fail. Here are 5 pointers to help you make a sound strategy for your entire campaign:

Know your goal: First off, decide what you are trying to achieve from the campaign. Are you after getting new sales leads or do you simply wish to boost the number of clicks on your business blog? Once you have the goal clearly in mind, the rest of the plan will be significantly easier to develop.
Prepare to use social media: These days when smartphones are cheaper than ever before and even regular phones come with built-in web browsers, online marketing and social media pretty much go hand in hand. Why not use social media in your mobile marketing campaign then? Post links to your blog on Facebook, or tweet about the new updates on your website, the choice is all yours. Make sure to have mobile versions of your business website and blog handy though. Without that, your efforts will be in vain.
Decide the format to be used in updates: Make sure that updates that are released on social media channels follow proper formats. Ideally, there should be a part about the information, followed by a call to action in order to increase chances of conversion.
Make sure that the updates are posted frequently: Make sure that there is not much gap between the updates. Ideally, a mobile marketing campaign should have more frequent updates than other types of online campaigns.
Build a list of recipients of updates: Make it a point not to send your updates to just about anyone. This will soon get your company labeled as a spammer entity. Make provisions for building a list of recipients who have agreed to receive the updates sent out by your company. Once you have such a mailing list in your hands, you can rest assured that your company will never be blacklisted by any of the mobile connection carriers.

Running a mobile marketing campaign successfully is not that big a deal. It is the planning phase where most marketers screw up. Plan properly after discussing with your marketing team, and you are sure to build a sound plan to make your campaign successful.

How to Find a Reliable Mobile Phone Dropship to Start Your Business

The mobile phone reselling business is a lucrative one and with the right kind of decisions and investment, you could end up making profits to sustain you, your family and possible create some job opportunities all together. The demand for mobile phone is ever rising with the already established markets of Europe and America still having the demand despite the huge supply. There are prospective markets like in Africa where demand is slowly rising with the evolution of the world into a digital one.

Before you decide to embark on a wholesale business, then you need to establish a couple of factors. Wholesaling like any other kind of investment has its risks and you do not want to end up with uncollected stock in your warehouse. You need to have a drop shipper so that you can have a greater access to the market and potentially grow your business. Your drop shipper will take the role of putting out your good name and marketing the products and then referring all the customers to you since you will be having the devices in stock. At this point you have already gathered that you need to inculcate drop shipping into your plans if you want to record any success and ultimately any profits in the long run.

So how do you get to include drop shipping into your plans? You need to find good and reputable drop shipping providers. Honesty and reliability are some of the two major qualities that you need to look for in these kinds of providers. Their reputations should precede them. One with all these qualities cannot stay hidden. The internet has made it possible to outsource for drop shippers from overseas. In such a case, you lack the useful ingredient that is face-to-face meeting which can help you learn something about them. But whatever the case, it would be wise to go through their track record and see if they have any customer complains in their past. If they do then you obviously have to look for someone else with better credentials.

Testing your drop shipping provider would be wise in establishing how good they are. Make the order or have a friend do it and then monitor the steps and the progress that the drop shipper makes in ensuring that the customer receives. Find out how much they charges for cell phone drop shipping. Since you are going to be possibly handling china mobile phones, their pricing should not be too high. While doing this, find out the methods of payment that they accept- the more the better.

Thanks to the miracle that is technology, you can be able to find providers who will do mobile phone drop shipping with expertise from anywhere in the world. You always have to remember that in the end, the kind of drop shipper you go for will make or break your business so you need to invest time and energy in finding a reputable one.
