If you mean: "How to I copy a file on system1 and place it on a system2
SMS managed volume, when system1 and system2 are not in the same
SMSplex?", then you CANNOT do this. Period. OK, you can. But if you do,
when it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. And I will NOT tell you how
to do this. It is EVIL, so to speak.

You may be able to allocate a dataset on a nonSMS managed volume which
"belongs" to system2. Cataloguing it is a whole 'nuther question unless
the catalogs are shared.

As one person indicated, you can use FTP to send the dataset from
system1 to system2, assuming that system2 is running FTP and there is an
IP connection between the two systems. I've done this myself.
