If you use a z/OS FTP server, there is a bug in 1.13 which will not allow the FTP server to work. A PTF is available for z/OS 2.1. For a quickie workaround I modified a sample FTP exit to get around the bug, but still couldn't get the FTP server method to work with z/OS.
If you have NFS server running on z/OS, that is the easiest way to go, using the repo=nfsiso option. This avoids any ascii/ebcdic issues. You can also later NFS mount the OMVS directory containing the .iso on z/Linux and then do a loopback mount on the .iso file and use that for a yum repository. -- Donald J.
