I always terse the dump first, seems problematic if you don't.
ADRDDSU DUMP, TERSE, FTP in Binary.
Reverse the process on the next MVS platform.
That's exactly what we've been doing for years, and it works fine.

Wayne and Gord are correct, you MUST terse a DFDSS dump before
downloading to a PC, FTPing over the internet, etc. It's the only way
to ensure that the dump dataset is correctly rebuilt prior to RESTORE on
the target system. And don't hit me with FTP EBCDIC BLOCK, that only
works 99% of the time. I've hit the 1% where it doesn't, and I don't
need that headache again. TERSE works 100% of the time.
