I thought that someone would remember difficulties with FTP on z/OS 2.1, 
and I didn't want to be told about the TSO problem.
This sort of job worked fine under z/OS 1.13.

Specifically:
The job I is a big FTP GET from USA to Australia - both ends are tape. My 
job looks like:

//         SET TAPUNIT=3592 
//* 
//FTPP115  EXEC PGM=FTP,REGION=0M,TIME=1440, 
//         PARM='KGNMVS11.POK.IBM.COM  (EXIT=16 ti 1800'
//SYSFTPD  DD * 
  AUTOTAPEMOUNT     TRUE  ; Automatic mount of unmounted
//* 
//OUTTAPE  DD DISP=(,CATLG),UNIT=&TAPUNIT., 
//            LABEL=(1,SL,RETPD=30),VOL=(,,,9), 
//            LRECL=0,RECFM=U,BLKSIZE=27998, 
//            DSN=WWP115.GSD2014B.PRODUCTS 
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* 
//SYSIN    DD * 
gsdbld 
xxxxxxxx 
ebcdic 
mode c 
site    chkptint=0 bufno=25 norestput 
site    dswaittime=30  datakeepalive=1800 
locsite dswaittime=30  datakeepalive=1800 
locsite chkptint=0 bufno=25 norestget 
locsite fwfriendly 
locsite filetype=seq + 
        conddisp=delete 
get 'WWP115.GSD2014B.PRODUCTS'  //DD:OUTTAPE 
quit 
//* 

The error I keep getting is:

EZA1485I 2325233894 bytes transferred - 10 second interval rate 1220.09 
KB/sec -
EZA2589E Connection to server interrupted or timed out. Receiving data   
EZA2590E recv error from receive_data - EDC5120I Interrupted function 
call. (errno2=0x76650291)
EZA1475I Connection with KGNMVS11.POK.IBM.COM terminated  
EZA2607W Transfer aborted due to receive error (-2)  
EZA1735I Std Return Code = 16125, Error Code = 00010 

It does not fail in the same place - the byte count is always different.

Someone else is also experiencing a problem doing a completely different 
FTP - in his case a PUT. He gets:

EIRR954E: FTP message: EZA2589E Connection to server interrupted or timed 
out. Sending data 
EIRR954E: FTP message: EZA2590E send error from send_data - EDC5120I

EIRR954E: FTP message: EZA1475I Connection with testcase.boulder.ibm.com 
terminated 
EIRR954E: FTP message: EZA2603E Error sending the file

Interface Error (IE): 0, Client Error code (CEC): 10 Probable cause: 
Socket error, other send/receive errors.

We are still looking and trying different things but so far no 
circumvention.

So PI09301 states
* z/OS FTP cannot pull data off the REXX                       *
* stack after FTP is put into the AUTHCMD                      *
* section of IKJTSOxx which is required by                     *
* z/OS FTP from V2R1 

How is that related to your issue?  Are you running REXX to do FTP?

Or if you could provide some more details, it would help.

What do you mean by "experiencing problems" ?  FTP is not running, fails 
to run, runs but does not do X,  etc...
