I don't think you should translate the data in any way. FTP directly from tape to AIX. MVS can do this. You may or may not have shop rules that prevent FTP from tape.
HTH, <snip> My main doubt about that is what's the right way to read the data from the tape (DITTO, IEBGENER maybe not). Thanks a lot. </snip> <snip> How about FTP (Binary) from z/OS tape to AIX and then restore? </snip> <snip> Hi everybody, a simple problem ! :) I have a couple of 3590 cartridges written on an AIX system and, as Murphy law states, I've not a 3590 unit anymore attached to the AIX system. Of course I could read the cartridges in a zOS env, but the question is: Is there any "meaningful" process to read those tapes, dump the content, sending it to an AIX machine and read it as a "I don't know what" ? Any idea (or direct experience) is appreciated. </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
