z/pdt and Hercules both run z/OS on PC's. That's the platform combination I meant. Getting your volumes to your PC based z/OS is what I thought the purpose was for this op.
Since the op wanted to transmit their Volume to their PC, my assumption was that they "probably" wanted to use it there for some purpose other than just something to take up space on their hard drive :) Brian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
