I'm just after opinion as to the best way to transfer files across from a normal MF Lpar ,
including some USS directories, to a copy of this Lpar running on RDz/UT under RedHat linux on a
VM server. I'm told that shared DASD is not possible between the MF Lpar& the RDz
instance,& we have FTP or NJE (don't know which is quicker). The basic scenario is to do
regular incremental refreshes of the RDz/UT environment from it's "big brother" MF
instance
I'm posting this last thing on a Fri arvo, so may not get back to it before

Melvyn,
I would run DFDSS DUMP, TERSE, FTP binary, DETERSE, then DFDSS RESTORE.

Tom Conley
dumb question - the plan that I was given just said basically DFDSS DUMP, FTP,
RESTORE - what advantage does

Hi Tom
Thanks for that - any particular reason for including TERSE, over just DFDSS&
FTP ?
cheers
Melvyn
Melvyn,
The DFDSS dump dataset is a RECFM=U file. I've had difficulty in
transferring RECFM=U files with FTP, so TERSEing them creates a nice FB
1024 format that can FTP cleanly in binary mode. I also get the
compression for a faster FTP. Someone else in this thread recommended
TSO XMIT which basically does the same thing without compression, by
creating an FB 80 format record.
Regards,
Tom Conley
