Where is the ftp server. It is on z/VSE & z/OS. Or do you use the Microsoft ftp server at any step? If you are using a Windows desktop <bleech/> to first contact the z/VSE ftp server, download the data to Windows, then contact a z/OS server to upload to z/OS, I have a possibility. In the scenario below, assume you are on a Windows desktop.
C:\>ftp open zvse userid password bin quote stru r get zvse.file close open zos userid password bin quote stru r quote site lrecl=? blksize=? pri=? sec=? cyl put zvse.file quit The above uses the "STRUcture Record" command. You really need to be in BINary mode to use this. In this mode, the file downloaded in "encoded" in such a way as to preserve logical records. So the file on the Windows system is basically "unreadable" (unless you know how to decode the structure and convert the data properly). But when you upload to z/OS, the STRU R causes z/OS to properly reconstruct the logical records, just as they were on z/VSE. Note that I don't know z/VSE or how to use the z/VSE ftp server. I did download the manual, but was confused by some of the ftp command (SMNT in particular). But I assume that you know how to properly use both the z/VSE and z/OS ftp service. If you are running jobs on z/VSE and z/OS along with a Windows ftp server, then I doubt it can be done. The z/VSE client has a LSTRU command to set the structure locally to Record, as needed. But the z/OS ftp client does not. So z/VSE can send RECORD structured data to Windows, but z/OS cannot retrieve it. The reason is that if you say "STRU R" on the z/OS client, the Windows server will respond with an error because Windows doesn't support RECORD structured files. 2014-05-19 5:07 GMT-05:00 גדי בן אבי <[email protected]>: > Hi, > > I am looking for a way to transfer a variable length file from VSE to z/OS. > The file is the output of ADAULD (ADABAS Unload). > The transfer will be through a third machine, running windows. > > Does VSE have something like TSO’s XMIT or TRSMAIN? > > Thanks > > Gadi > > ________________________________ > לשימת לבך, בהתאם לנהלי חברת מלם מערכות בע"מ ו/או כל חברת בת ו/או חברה > קשורה שלה (להלן : "החברה") וזכויות החתימה בהן, כל הצעה, התחייבות או מצג > מטעם החברה, מחייבים מסמך נפרד וחתום על ידי מורשי החתימה של החברה, הנושא את > לוגו החברה או שמה המודפס ובצירוף חותמת החברה. בהעדר מסמך כאמור (לרבות מסמך > סרוק) המצורף להודעת דואר אלקטרוני זאת, אין לראות באמור בהודעה אלא משום > טיוטה לדיון, ואין להסתמך עליה לביצוע פעולה עסקית או משפטית כלשהי. > > Please note that in accordance with Malam and/or its subsidiaries > (hereinafter : "Malam") regulations and signatory rights, no offer, > agreement, concession or representation is binding on the Malam, unless > accompanied by a duly signed separate document (or a scanned version > thereof), affixed with the Malam seal. > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, > send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN > -- There is nothing more pleasant than traveling and meeting new people!
