As mentioned, you could send it wrapped up in VMARC.
You could also send it wrapped up in a NETDATA envelop.
Considering what SENDFILE/RECEIVE does, which supports
preserving time stamps, that is exactly how it works.
Or you could use MAILABLE, which puts one or more files into an ASCII envelope
and is self-extracting. Supports both LISTFILE-style filespecs and file lists
in a file (as plain fileids or in CMS EXEC format).
There's a version at http://zvm.sru.edu/~DOWNLOAD/MAILABLE.EXEC which is almost
current -- the only changes since then are some better error handling if
VMFPLCD (used internally) fails, and a change to a comment.
Novell is using it for distributing the SLES10 DDR images.
