In this context, (s)FTP is just a batch job (for outbound) and a dataset creation (inbound). Nothing remarkable. The job scheduler handles all just fine. The scheduler even knows to serialize transmissions to a given server and to pace work to avoid network overload.
Properly done, a data transmission is just another job that runs and is managed in the same way as any other production job. This is just not a big deal; don't over complicate it. And don't spend a lot of money for something you already have. Don't know what SCP is. But it doesn't matter. We don't accept any process that cannot be fully automated and managed by exception by the job scheduler. Of course, if you are a competitor, then interactive PC based solutions are the way to go :-) -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Juergen Keller Sent: Thursday, November 12, 2009 6:49 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: SFTP and SCP hi all, does anyone have positive experience with software supporting SFTP and SCP on mainframe? We already looked at Connect:Direct and Axway Synchrony Transfer. Maybe there exists more comfortable software including sequential scheduling.
