For a z/OS to z/OS file transfer of a VB binary file we can use "binary" and "(structure) record", ie:
//FTPVBGET JOB ,'VB FTP GET',NOTIFY=&SYSUID //EXECFTP EXEC PGM=FTP,PARM='remote_zos (EXIT' //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //E9130 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=DEV.RXMTIN.ACH.E9130 //SYSIN DD * binary record get 'prod.rxmtin.ach.e9130' //dd:e9130 quit /* This option is not mentioned in the following IBM technote: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21188301 Is there any reason why I would not prefer "binary/record" over "ebcdic/blocked"? The former seems to make much more sense, since that is in fact what I am doing. Specifying EBCDIC implies a text file, which this is not (even though it does appear to work).
