Yes, I come from the Turnover world, so I am still learning to speak Aldon.  I am looking for a simple step-by-step to create a service program. I would expect to create the module, a copy source with the interface, a bindery source (not a binding directory), and the instructions to wrap the pieces together as the final service program?  See samples. 

How does Aldon deal with the service program and signatures once we start using the tools and keeping the consumers up to date?

I have looked at the standard documentation and found it is more of a reference than a how-to.  Is there a good resource from Aldon I can contact? All this pseudo-source stuff is not clear from the documents.

Hi David,
I think an interactive session (WEBEX) should help address your questions. I will contact you via your support case 00786068.

I found this article very helpful from Hiebert, Chris. I was able to create the service program and a test harness over it to see if it worked.  Now I need to find the best practices documents for using service programs with Aldon.

Hi David, 

In addition to working with Support, I thought you'd appreciate some links to places where you can find additional documentation on how to work with ILE in LM(i): 
  • First, log in to the Rocket Customer Portal here
  • If you don't have a sign in, you can request one down in the bottom right under the "sign in" bar. 
  • Click on the menu bar that says "Knowledge Base" and do a search on "ILE". There are three documents there. 
  • Click on the menu bar that says "Documentation" and do a search on "ILE". You will find some hits under the Rocket Aldon Lifecycle Manager IBM i Edition in the Daily Operation Reference, the General Topics Reference and in the Setup/Administration Reference. 
Good luck!
Joe

Attaching a PowerPoint Joe recommended for easy access. Also note the documentation portal is available without sign-on. Here's the direct link to the ILE documentation but as of Monday the platform is being upgraded and the structure is changing - you'll need to execute your search again to get the same result.

Had a great work session with Jay.  I am on the right road now.  Thanks all.
