Here's a step we regularly run: ===== //FTPSTEP EXEC PGM=FTP,PARM='remote-machine-IP-address 21 ( EXIT' //JOBCARDS DD DSN=&&JOB,LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=0, // SPACE=(80,(100,100)),UNIT=VIO,DISP=(NEW,PASS,DELETE) //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //INPUT DD *,DLM='!!' c449630 password ascii get 'DBCNHPS2.HPS.MIS.FORMATS.CNTL(C449630F)' //DD:JOBCARDS site filetype=jes put //DD:JOBCARDS quit !! =====
This copies a file contraining a job stream from a remote system and writes it to a temporary file, then submits that temporary file to the internal reader. This is probably described in the IBM manual "IP User's Guide and Commands", but I couldn't readily locate it in the index. -- Jack Hamilton Management Information & Analysis - Analytic Information Services Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. 1950 Franklin Street, Oakland, California 94612 +1 510 987-1556 (KP tieline 8-427-1556) NOTE: This email document and attachments are covered by CA Evidence Code §1157 and CA Health and Safety Code §1370.

Because put requires the local file name to be explicitly specified, the "temporary" file must be catalogued. Is there a way to specify a DD NAME to read from instead of the actual local file name? Something like put (ddname) remote.file.name It doesn't look like it from any doc I've seen, but it seems like such a natural thing to do in an MVS batch environment. :-) //S1 EXEC PGM=MHH Miracle Happens Here //STUFF DD DISP=(,PASS,DELETE),....
