All,
Trying this for the first time recently. I have been using Filezilla regularly
for nearly a year but up till now it was only to FTP up and down files from
Windows 11 to/from ZOS traditional datasets (Ascii & Bin) and all works fine
there.
I am now in the midst of installing Semeru Java 17 onto a ZOS 2.5 system where
I need to upload the PAX file into Unix Sys Svcs from my Win 11 laptop
filesystem. I've downloaded files from IBM website.
My issue is as follows:
1. I launch Filezilla and connect via FTP (native FTP) to ZOS 3.1 LPAR using
proper credentials to mainframe.
2. I then use the right hand side of navigator pane to navigate to Unix System
Svcs target directory - in this case it is '/u/ts0sxe/Java17/. I set the xfer
type to Binary.
3. I then drag/drop the Java 17 PAX file from left (Windows) navigation pane to
right (ZOS) navigation pane.
4. The file xfer completes successfully according to Filezilla.
All is wonderfull - right? Wrong... :-(
I then login to ZOS 3.1 TSO/ISPF - goto 3.17 and my target directory
('/u/ts0sxe/Java17/) is empty. (I also tried a small text (ASCII) file as well-
same result)...
Am I doing something wrong or is this some sort of Filezilla restriction?
If restriction, then can someone enlighten me on how you FTP upload a PAX file
to Unix Sys Svcs or is there a different methodology folks here use that I am
not considering?
Thanks,
