I used the example on the IBM website to get the maintenance for z/OS
V1R8. I am getting the following message:
Connecting to: dispsd-76.boulder.ibm.com 207.25.253.76 port: 21.
Connection to server interrupted or timed out. Initial connection
Std Return Code = 10000, Error Code = 00008
Is there a way to place a WAIT in the <SERVER parameter to extend
connection time?
I received similar errors yesterday myself, so I suggest this error may
be transient and caused by the IBM FTP server and not by your z/OS
system or network. Maybe. Try again today and see if the problem
persists.
Even so, there are options you can tweak in your FTP.DATA file that
affect FTP connect time, etc. I don't remember the specific keywords,
but you can find them in the Communications Server IP User's Guide.
BTW, check out the <FTPOPTIONS> tag in your SMP/E CLIENT data set in
case you want to override the default FTP.DATA file.
