Flash!!! After restarting 2 or 3 times without the STREAMS= and getting nowhere (an immediate DMTNTR930E message and no file transfer activity), with a rapidly expanding queue, the MVS guy said that JES was configured for 4 streams. I tried STREAMS=4 and got immediate action. The queue of over 100 jobs was reduced to 1 before another DMTNTR930E struck and, once again, froze the link.
Why STREAMS=4 did anything at all to get the link to work is beyond me. That may have been happenstance; maybe the link thawed out for some other reason. According to the documentation, having a number higher than 1 does not cause files to be transferred concurrently; it merely affects the order in which files are sent under some circumstances. They are still sent one at a time. The key is the DMTNTR930E. The question is, "What can we do to determine the cause of the error?"
