This is interesting as our network folks just implemented a HTTP proxy which 
totally negates AMAPDUPL because it uses a FTP client.  I have a PRM open and 
are looking at OpenSSH sftp or potentially Dovetailed Tech SFTP to be to access 
datasets from USS.

It has introduced a nightmare for uploading diagnostic information.  We can't 
use PDUU and need an alternative from IBM until they can support something 
other than the FTP client.

On my last PMR, I was told to use PDUU to send in the dump. It does the tersing 
and encrypting under the covers and can be run as JCL.

There's this note about the types of files that are _not_ supported:

---
PDUU does not support the following types of input data sets:
 Large block interface (LBI) (no BLKSIZE value).
 VSAM and direct (DSORG=DA) data sets
 Data sets with keys (KEYLEN)
 z/OS UNIX files
 Concatenated data sets of any type
