The port 113 was closed on the LINUX server. We opened it and did the test 
again but the transfer rate is unchanged.

We had a similar problem and found it was related to port 113 and firewalls.  
We had the ftp server on a Linux box and were using the client from z/OS.  We 
ended up creating a rule to keep the Linux ftp server from sending to port 113 
of the client.   Port 113 has something to do with identd.

Subject: Slow FTP transfer from z/OS to Unix

Hello,

 

I'm running a batch job that does a FTP transfer from a z/OS mainframe to a 
LINUX server and the transfer rate is about 20K/sec. If I do the same FTP 
transfer to a Windows server I got a transfer rate of about 900K/sec. The 
mainframe OSA card is running at 100 Mb/sec full. Since the Windows and the 
LINUX server are on the same switch and got the same throughput capability  I 
suppose that there is an optimal setting that is done automatically when the 
transfer is done with a Windows server but this setting is not done 
automatically with a LINUX server. I tried PASV but it didn't change the bad 
transfer rate. Could you tell me what this setting could be? Thank you!
