Re: XMIT manager unable to decode INMR02

[Allan Staller]

Input/Output to XMIT be any of the "standard" file formats. Attributes will be 
restored during the RECEIVE process.
XMIT will convert the "input file" to FB/80.

What XMIT cannot handle is any file format other that FB/80 for the converted 
file.

XMIT manager cannot handle certain files.  If I remember correctly, if the 
xmitted file is PS VB then XMIT manager yaks.

Sorry, that's it, it's any xmitted PS file.  I reported this to Neal

Re: XMIT manager unable to decode INMR02

[Allan Staller]

I have most often seen this where there an intervening non-Z/OS box in the 
transfer.
However, this could even occur w/ z/OS-Z/OS transfers.

I suggest you re-send the file from the original source with any intervening 
transfers also in BINRY  (MODE I (eye)).

Hi,
How exactly was the .XMI Dataset downloaded from the mainframe?
(I.e. was it PC File Transfer (IND$FILE), FTP, some other mechanism?)

Thanks and regards,

Is the file on the mainframe FB/80/3120?  Or at least FB/80?  If it somehow has

Did you set binary transfer on?  FTP command "I" (letter eye)?  I think that 
FTP message is because the mget encountered non-printable characters in one or

Re: XMIT manager unable to decode INMR02

[Lizette Koehler]

I would browse the dataset on the Mainframe and make sure the file is intact.

The first couple of records should have INR0 in the beginning of the line

If it does not - then it is not an XMI file.

Next on the mainframe do  a RECEIVE of the file and see if there are any errors 
during that process.

Do you mean UTF-8 or UTF-EBCDIC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-EBCDIC)?


UTF-8, I didn't even know there was something like UTF-EBCDIC!

Flow is UTF-8 (on a white box) -> IND$FILE -> lots of gibberish on z/OS -> 
process -> processed gibberish -> IND$FILE -> nice unchanged UTF-8, at least 
when extracted with XMIT Manager and its CP1046.9921875 codepage


Processing on z/OS doesn't touch the gibberish itself, it only has to calculate 
the actual length in UFT-8 characters, and that's done using the translate and 
sum PL/I builtins, using metadata in the original (white box) input file.

Re: XMIT Manager and CP1047 (or rather CP1046.9921875)

[Seymour J Metz]

Every release that I have ever used has had issues with translation, ever since 
the original ASCII support for tape.

Do you mean UTF-8 or UTF-EBCDIC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-EBCDIC)?

Bad history; bad IBM.

Throughout history, EBCDIC has had NL at 0x15 and LF at 0x25.  ASCII had only
LF and used CR-LF for the effect of NL.

Early console printers used NL as an EBCDIC line separator.  CP-67 used NL as a
command separator.  The first mainframe C processors (I believe ISVs preceded
IBM) rendered "\n" as NL (0x15).  This does not violate the ANSI C 
specification.

With the advent of UNIX System Services (IBM by then had its own C compiler)
IBM decided the path of least resistance was to violate its own standard and
swap LF and NL in ASCII<->EBCDIC conversions.  CMS Pipelines A2E and E2A
filters perform no such swap.  iconv(1) on IBM is thus incompatible with 
iconv(1)
on Linux.  The latter obeys IBM's specification which IBM violates.

Shame on IBM!

Thanks Sam.  It works fine on my 64-bit Windows 8 laptop.

Hi Folks,

For those of you who wish to install XMIT-Manager (originally from 
Neal Johnston-Ward) on 64-bit Windows systems, there is a version of it 
which was modified by Robert A.H. Prins to install there.


I had placed this version on File 916 of the CBT Tape, but it needs 
a mainframe to load it up to, and then to FTP down to a PC. (At least I 
archived the thing so it wouldn't disappear.  Robert had originally put 
it on the files of H390-MVS on yahoogroups, but things don't stay there 
forever as more files are loaded up)


Anyway, I made an attempt to make this package available on the 
www.cbttape.org website, maybe not in the best manner, but I myself was 
able to install it from there on a 64-bit Windows system.


How do you get it?  Go to www.cbttape.org, and click on XMIT-Manager 
at the upper left side of the screen.  Look at the resulting screen.  
Notice that I replaced the defunct UK download site for XMIT-Manager-V3, 
with a link to this program that says XmitMgr-64bit.  Just click on that 
link to download it, unzip, point to Xmit Manager.exe and run it.  Maybe 
I will polish this up later, or Sam K will, but at least it's out there 
now for people to access and use.


All the best of everything to all of you...

Sincerely,Sam

One could try to get permission to use specific media like pendrive to

Or maybe (actually it's not) it would help to create small .BAT script

is it matter of asking for permission?


BTW: My co-worker did small text description how to install the product

There are only a couple of suggestions

1)  Under Win7 you can setup and run a WinXP Virtual Machine.  A free XP
system image is available for download from Microsoft to run under Win7. You
should be able to install and run old software in the XP VM.  I've had to do
that with a number of packages.  It's a bit slow starting up the VM but runs
fine after that.

2)  Find an already installed version of XMIT under XP and copy it from the

Re: XMIT Manager

[Farley, Peter x23353]

The problem is that the installer software is 16-bit.  XMIT Manager itself is 
32-bit and runs without a problem on 64-bit systems.  You just cannot use the 
installer to put it on your new machine, you have to do it manually from an 
existing installation on an XP or lower-level system.

Copy the folder on your old machine which contains the XMIT manager software 
(probably under C:\Program Files) to a USB stick and write it in a new folder 
on your 64-bit system in the C:\Program Files (x86) folder.

Then if you want you can create a shortcut to the EXE file and cut-n-paste the 
shortcut to your desktop.

Finally, add .XMI and .XMIT extensions to the folder view options and point 
to the XMIT Manager executable as the one to handle such files.  Now you can 
just double-click on an XMIT file and it will open.

Re: XMIT Manager

[Lloyd Fuller]

The problem is not the executable.  The real 64-bit problem is in the 
installer.  The installer that is used with XMIT only installs to 32-bit based 
Windows.  


If someone updated the installer to a newer version, things would be fine.

So copying the XMIT directory works except you don't get all of the links done.

Re: XMIT Manager

[Roberto Pacheco]

There is another XMIT utility called unXmit. It runs on 64bits machines and
support all Windows versions.

It can be downloaded
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Office-tools/Other-Office-Tools/unXmit.shtml

And it supports xmit PDSE files.

Regards,

Roberto Pacheco

To make it clear, the installer won't run on Windows 7 but the XMITMGR
program runs just fine. 

So as others have suggested copy XMITMGR.EXE from an XP system and store it
in Program Field (x86) on the Windows 7 machine and you should be fine.

Re: XMIT Manager

[Lizette Koehler]

Maybe we can get Sam to package the XP version of the program on the CBTTAPE
less the installer.

Then this would not be an issue

Re: XMIT Manager

[Farley, Peter x23353]

There was a person who offered to re-package the XMIT software in a more 
current installer a few years back, but IIRC when he contacted the author he 
could not get permission to do so.

I do not believe that the original author is interested in any update of the 
software, but I am willing to be proven wrong.  No source is available, as far 
as I know.

 There is/was an analogue called unXMIT, written in Java, perhaps available
from SourceForge.  I tried it a few years ago and deemed it Not Ready for

Re: XMIT Manager

[Kirk Wolf]

The open-source portable unXMIT is very encouraging.  I know the
programmer, DeWitt Knapp and he's a great guy, so hopefully this will be a
good option going forward.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/unxmit

It is written in Java using the portable Eclipse RCP/SWT framework, and
there are packages for Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.  The source is also
available under GPLv3, so if you don't like it you have the freedom to
change it.

How about just ZIPing up the installed files, including the original

In fairness, it would still probably require the approval of the author.  
Personally, I would not do it without permission.
