I have a .savf file that someone created from an IBM DB2 S400 server to transmit a database to me.

I installed db2 server community edition on Ubuntu. My install works, as I was able to create a test database, load it with some data, and make some queries.

Now, I’d like to use the savf file to recreate the database it was created from.

I am drowning in IBM documentation pages such as https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.1?topic=ssw_ibm_i_71/cl/crtsavf.html

I though something like rstobj to mydatabase from data.savf, like with sql dump files would work but I can’t get around it.

Tried some commands with rstobj, but I really don’t understand the logic of SAVLIB and the rest of the documentation. Documentation ressources on db2 seem limited on the net. https://www.db2tutorial.com does not say anything about savf file.

Can someone help me?
