PROBLEM: error "Object count mismatch" causes DataGate for iSeries 8.2 installation to abort. 

SUMMARY

DataGate/400 installation aborts on V6R1 with system value QFRCCVNRST set to 'Restore all objects' - DG8 8.2.131DataGate/400 installation ASNAINST/DG8LOAD command fails when iSeries
system value QFRCCNVRST is set to
7 - All objects will be converted.

Forced conversion of objects CALL400, AVRDDSIMP and AVRGETDSPS causes
three objects to not be restored.  The mismatch of restored objects in the
DG8 library aborts the installation with message: 
 

Object count mismatch. Orig= 084 Curr=081.  Installation cancelled.

Programs currently are at these OS levels:
  Object      Type      Level                         
----------  -------  ---------                   
AVRDDSIMP    PGM      V3R6M0                           
AVRGETDSPS  PGM      V3R6M0                           
CALL400      PGM      V4R3M0

 RESOLUTION

Workaround is to set QFRCCNVRST to another value, e.g.
      1  - Objects with validation errors will be converted. 
or 
      2  - Objects requiring conversion to be used on the current 
            version of the operating system or on the current     
            machine will be converted.  Objects with validation   
            errors will also be converted.   

You can change the system value as follows:                    

Log onto the I Series

Select option 7. Define or change the system.

 

 

Select option 8, Work with system values

 

 

Find QFRCCVNRST and select option 2, Change.

 Change the "Force Conversion on restore" setting to "1" or "2"

 

 

 Restore the save file again.
