FTPing of DFDSS Dump Files

2007-12-07 Thread Ed Long
So, since I transfer 4 DFDSS dumps a day via TERSE and FTP, I thought I'd put together a test restore to see what happened. I used the following FTP command stream; which is identical, except for replacing the put with a get, to the outbound. It worked fine; a DFDSS TYPRUN=NORUN restore read

Does anyone know of a way to FTP the DUMP file back to a zOS system so it is readable? Using Windows as a client and z/OS as a server the following works for me for tersed datasets (binary ftping in both directions): ftp quote site lrecl=1024 recfm=fb blksize=6144 200 SITE command was

When I use DFDSS to download a volume or dataset(s) to be transferred to another host, I always include BLKSIZE=32760 on the output file in DFDSS. Even though DFDSS does not care, it does help my transfer process whether that is NDM, XCOM, FTP. If you terse the file you need to make sure you

I need to move on zOS system to another. My simply plan was to dump datasets using DFDSS DUMP and then transferring the DUMP file to the other system using FTP. For the most part it worked out ok- in fact we'd TERSE the DUMP file before FTPing and DETERSE after saving lots of bandwidth. But
