They use TSO XMIT to create a transport file. You Download and UPLOAD in BIN format. On the MF Side the attributes are usually LRECL=80, BLKSIZE=3120 and RECFM=FB. You Upload to that file on the Mainframe with a BIN attribute. This will prevent issues with the file. On the MF Side once the file is there, user TSO RECEIVE INDSN(whatever) I usually pre-allocate on the MF then use IND$FILE, or FTP, other program with a BIN as the way it is transmitted to the MF Lizette > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On > Behalf Of Ana Paula > Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2018 8:19 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: RECEIVE USERMOD IN BINARY > > Hello, > > I installed a CICS 5.4 and I tried to install the latest RSU in it. > > I had problems to close the PTFs 'chain', even withou having an IBM > SUpport, i opened an case. > > They sent to me a USERMOD developed by the Level 2 support. > > But i have no idea how to receive a PTF in BINARY. > > I tried to unterse the ptf, but its not a TERSED file.
