If you want to work with datasets (as opposed to files in USS), Co:Z SFTP is a no-brainer. Believe me, it takes ages to OCOPY files from MVS to USS, especially if they're big files.
Alternatively, do you really need SFTP? How about something like Luminex MDI SecureTransfer. Their products' core principle is to use tape emulation to convert the TCP traffic to FICON, so you don't have TCP-related overhead. But then once the data is on a Luminex back-end (needn't be their storage, could be any existing NAS etc.), you can then SFTP all you want without worrying about burning up CP time on the Z. - KB ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Thursday, July 23, 2020 3:00 AM, Roberto Halais <roberto.hal...@gmail.com> wrote: > "Political issues" > > Already ran into that. > Thank you. > > On Wed, Jul 22, 2020 at 5:29 PM Seymour J Metz sme...@gmu.edu wrote: > > > Technically it's a no-brainer, but there may be political issues at some > > sites. > > -- > > Shmuel (Seymour J.)
