I got the send file to work. I can receive it from the spool on z/OS side. Thanks for everyone's help.

Not only that, but SENDFILE (aka TRANSMIT or XMIT on TSO) and RECEIVE have significant CPU overhead, as they have to break "wide" files into files with records that can squeeze through your narrow 80-byte wide virtual punch, and then be reconstructed by "RECEIVE" at the target destination. FTP will do the trick, but it's difficult to script, and to handle bad return codes, etc. Download the free VMFTP package and you'll be on the way.

I need to get it over to our MVS side so we can store it in mobius. It appears since its greater than 80, I'm running into the problem described below. If I use send file, the file is jumbled on mvs side. Hopefully this is enough detail.

If you're sending to a TSO user, just SENDFILE fn ft TO user AT mvsnode. It gets packaged up in NETDATA format. If you're submitting a job, then you're limited to 80 bytes. If you are doing printing, then you need to use the PRINT command and a virtual printer (1403, 3800, or AFP). Tell us more about what you're trying to do.
