IIRC your installation needs to allow this option, if allowed you
should be prompted for the encipher option, this option is used on the
AMS repro command - via TSO HELP
I don't understand you said you did the XMIT on an encrypted dataset but
how was it sent unencrypted?
I wonder why this file cannot be encrypted and packed via the transmit
command? and get received encrypted, then decrypted?
does it get corrupted?

This means that your datasets on the local z/OS are very secure - but
people could unwittingly send them out in the clear.
If I use DFDSS to backup, and then send the dataset it works as expected.
There is "ENCIPHER" on the XMIT command - but I could not get this to work.
Is there some set up I need to do to prevent this? I was expecting some
checks along the lines of "this dataset is encrypted, it needs additional
checks - or use DFDSS under the covers"
