Universal Query for IBM i
Currently, IBM i runs Workload Automation 5.1.1. These pages provide information for that version.
Workload Automation 5 for IBM i Commands
The names of the Workload Automation 5 for IBM i commands that are installed in the IBM i QSYS library are tagged with the Workload Automation 5 for IBM i version / release / modification number, 511. The names of the commands installed in the Workload Automation 5 for IBM i product library, UNVPRD511, are untagged.
To maintain consistency across releases, you may prefer to use the untagged names in your production environment. The Change Release Tag program, UCHGRLS, lets you change the tagged command names in QSYS to the untagged command names in UNVPRD511.
These pages reference the IBM i commands by their untagged names. If you are using commands with tagged names to run Universal Query, substitute the tagged names for the untagged names in these references.
