I agree Mark. Still looks like a PS file to me. Would have to check if there is an option for a linear data set. But I don't think so. CTCs are best for communicating outside of the Sysplex. Many sites are using XCF and CF Structures.

BTW, the best method to use if you don't have a CF or can't use one because of sharing between sysplexes is CTC communications.
