Which is usually forbidden in those sites that firewall box.com. Why does IBM 
insist on putting documentation where customers can get at it? Box.com is one 
example (some ptf hold actions are on box.com, for IBM's convenience, no 
doubt), using ftp-Links to provide documentation (hold data, ptf hold actions 
and otherwise) is another example, when ftp is not supported by the corporate 
browser. Only https and sometimes ftps are.

Each and every site that gets their firewall no-no list from outside (in 
Germany that are most if not all of the big banks that have to adhere to 
regulatory 'counsil') will block box.com. And it is just about impossible (not 
to mention forbidden) to use private computers to get at data and then bring 
those data into the company. All corporate laptops are blocking USB ports, and 
email doesn't allow large attachments. So please DON'T consider private devices 
a 'bypass'!

Such a shame in this case, as it would be nice to see that for my trainee. 
Almost criminal for cases where I cannot get at the ptf documentation to see if 
new parms came in that will prohibit me from IPLing successfully!

There are a few sites that seem to hit firewall issues, and IBM BOX is one of 
them.  

These links are set up so that anyone with the link can access the files in the 
box folder, but IBM can't do anything about your firewalls.  

The work around is to access these files from a personal, or non-firewalled, 
computer.

Lisa,

I have the same issue.  The IBM Box website is on internet blacklists 
for file sharing.

If you are new to DFSMS or have employees that are looking for DFSMS basic 
information, refer them to the recordings from our November 2020 DFSMS Academy 
event.  It was a 3 day event that offered several sessions on DFSMS topics.  

The link to those recordings are here:  
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__ibm.box.com_s_w2jpq95ydynpztbjwdplw3l0hoipl0i8=DwIFaQ=9g4MJkl2VjLjS6R4ei18BA=eUhu3PeeWy6RTndlJVKembFjFsvwCa8eeU_gm45NyOc=esIznxuOiwtYA_Hx1MDn7A7jfeiyLrHBZHBUIDdMDSo=dlGKew8t6rg7zPBAZz0-7e4tx3oXp6FfiMpaZOjl-6c=
 

If you are familiar with DFSMS but need some details on the DFSMShsm (HSM) 
functionality, then you may be interested in the recordings from our DFSMShsm 
Series event.  

The link to those recordings are here:  
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__ibm.box.com_v_DFSMS-2DAcadem-2DDFSMShsm2021=DwIFaQ=9g4MJkl2VjLjS6R4ei18BA=eUhu3PeeWy6RTndlJVKembFjFsvwCa8eeU_gm45NyOc=esIznxuOiwtYA_Hx1MDn7A7jfeiyLrHBZHBUIDdMDSo=fZudnQw-JBlvWD4MtiYLGLGY7OXkFxmnp02vpCE3agc=
