Re: File Transfer conundrum






Any reason why you can't ftp directly between the two z/OS system?

If security is an issue you could use either IPSec tunnels between the 
two systems or setup IBM SecureFTP server (SSL'ed FTP).



Bruce Baxter wrote:
 We've routinely exhanged files with business partners running on z/OS 
 machines using tape for years.
 
 We're now in the process of converting a number of these to electronic 
 means, using in part FTP.  This is being done at the behest of one of 
our 
 business partners, who (IMHO) hasn't thought through all the issues that 
the 
 use of FTP introduces in this process.  The central issue as I see it is 
that the 
 mainframes at either end of the pipeline are both EBCDIC and record 
oriented, 
 and the servers and ftp processes that lie between them to facilitate 
these 
 transfers do not have any inherent concept of record oriented files like 
the 
 mainframe.
 
 I'm going to treat FIXED BLOCK data separately from VARIABLE BLOCKED 
data 
 separately. 
 
 The first files that we received were FIXED BLOCK, and had been 
translated 
 from EBCDIC to ASCII, most likely at the first transfer of the file from 
z/OS to 
 an ASCII based server platform (either Windows or AIX).  When they 
arrived 
 on our z/OS system, we had issues of data corruption because the data 
 contained zoned decimal data.  After some discussion, we agreed that 
we'd 
 transfer these files in BINARY mode at all steps along the way.  Thus, 
all we 
 had to do was ensure that the LRECL used for the destination dataset on 
 z/OS was the same as the source dataset.  This seems to be working OK.
 
 Most recently, we've been having problems with other files that are 
VARIABLE 
 BLOCKED.  We received the first of these files last week, transmitted 
from end-
 to-end in BINARY mode.  What we got was not at all what we expected. 
 We've discovered that the initial FTP from z/OS to the server stripped 
off all 
 information regarding record length and thus record delineation. Because 

 there aren't any RDWs in front of every record, ftp doesn't know how 
long the 
 records are and just plunks the data into the destination dataset in 
chunks of 
 LRECL-4.  I did a bunch of research on z/OS FTP and there doesn't appear 
to 
 be any way to make it convey record length/delineation information to 
and 
 ASCII platform other than to use ASCII mode.  z/OS FTP appears to have 
 mechanisms for conveying this between two z/OS FTP systems, but that's 
not 
 possible here.  For the present time, we've had the file shipped with 
the initiatl 
 movement translating the data from EBCDIC to ASCII and all subsequent 
 transfers until the last one back to z/OS in BINARY mode.  However, I'm 
 concerned about the possibility of data corruption if the translate 
tables used 
 in the first step and the last step of this files travel aren't exact 
inversions of 
 each other.  This would certainly be possible of the initial ASCII 
transfer were 
 done to a Windows Code Page 1252 system  and the last transfer (having 
 CP1252 data) were translating between UTF-8 and CP037.
 
 I'm interested in other folks war stories and what they've implemented 
for best 
 practices.  I've made clear to our developers and end-users that ftp is 
 certainly not a direct replacement for tape transfers.  It would appear 
that we 
 need lots of information about all the systems and transformations done 
in 
 moving the file from one system to another.  FTP doesn't convey this 
sort of 
 information in any way shape or form. 
 
 What sort of options are there?
 
 - Transmit/Receive would certainly be one, but would add a lot of 
overhead to 
 the process.
 - Removal of all non-display data from the files and subjecting them to 
ASCII 
 translation at every step would also be an option, but that would likely 
be 
 rejected by our business partner as too much work.
 - Are there any options to z/OS FTP that would allow record formatting 
 information to be conveyed in the file, if we presume that we'd transfer 
it in 
 binary mode at every step.
 
 Has anyone come across any clear helpful best practice type information 
or 
 sites?  I'd be interested in anything anyone has.

Odp: Re: ftp2jes equivalent but with Interface level 2 ?






Hi Grant,

I learned about level 2 this morning :) To be more exact 
it is JESINTERFACELEVEL.

As says  z/OS Communications Server,  IP Configuration Reference Version 1 

Release 8 (SC31-8776-10):

.11.64 JESINTERFACELEVEL  (FTP server):
 
Use the JESINTERFACELEVEL statement to specify the FTP-to-JES interface to 

be used by 
the installation. JESINTERFACELEVEL 1 uses the JES interface provided in 
releases prior 
to Communication Server for OS/390 V2R10. At this level, the FTP user is 
allowed to submit 
jobs to JES, retrieve held output matching their logged-in user ID plus 
one character, and 
delete held jobs matching their logged-in user ID plus one character.
 
With JESINTERFACELEVEL 2, FTP users can retrieve and delete any job in the 

system for 
which they have the security access facility (SAF) resource class JESSPOOL 

access. Their 
ability to submit jobs is governed by the JESJOBS class SAF resource. 
JESINTERFACELEVEL 2 should only be specified if security measures are in 
place to 
ensure process access to JES output. For more information on SDSF security 

refer to z/OS 
SDSF Operation and Customization


Ftp2jes which you can find on cbttape works with 
JESINTERFACELEVEL  = 1 only. So it can submit JOB, but it can not read the 

results

Perhaps I wil try to use somehow the solution you have indicated me.

Thank you very much

Mariusz

Just set the ICVR sit parm  (or override CEMT SET RUNAWAY) to the value -

60 before cancelling it. an AICA abend will result. and ICVR is just cpu

Re: Attachmate

2007-08-16 Thread Grant Ward Able
Thanks Terry. What I needed was to be able to interrupt the SDSF  Auto 
Update display.  The SDSF Help says: 

  To cancel , press the RESET key, then PA1 (BSC terminals); or the 
Attn keys (SNA terminals).

 Although I have updated my QuickPad to contain the PA1 key, none of the 
actions above seem to work...Pressing the ATTN key just takes me 
back to my session selection menu.

You might also have to click on the Attn key twice.

If by PA1, you mean to interrupt your foreground session, then the Attn
key in TSO-ISPF.EQP in the QuickPads should do the trick.  You can find
QuickPads under Options then Settings.  You can also edit the QuickPads.

Can you not have your WTOR rule use the $TA command to setup an

CA-OPS/MVS question - delayed replay to WTOR






Is there any way to tell CA-OPS/MVS that I want to reply to a WTOR after
a delay of n seconds? What is occurring is that we occassionally get
the message:

*18 CBR4196D Job POPH302D, drive 0605, volser 260329, error code 140167.
 Reply 'R' to retry or 'C' to cancel.

We want to wait about 3 minutes, then reply R. At present, we do a TSO
SEND in the WTOR rule asking the operator to reply in 3 minutes.
Unfortunately, they often forget to do so.

 Subject: FTP files in their directory structure from HFS to AIX
 
 
 Dear Fellow Listers,
 
 I have the need for transferring a set of files in a 
 directory structure a
 number of levels deep from HFS on mainframe to a file system 
 on an AIX box.
 From one run to the next of the application that produces 
 these files and
 directory structure, there may be a different number of files 
 and different
 levels in the directory structure.
 
 I need to control the sending from the mainframe. 
 
 Regular FTP and mput * does indeed transfer all the files, 
 but none of the
 directories; I end up with all files (regardless of where 
 they live in the
 input directory structure) in the root level of the 
 destination. Not what I
 want...
 
 I know, I could write a REXX to surf the directory tree and 
 create all the
 required commands (mkdir, cd, lcd, put etc.) to copy 
 everything over, but I
 would like to avoid that if possible.
 
 Would any of you know a way to fulfil my need?
 
 All tips and hints appreciated.
 
 Cheers,
 
 Jantje.

from option 6, issue ISRFIND, or from any command line, TSO ISRFIND will 
show you what is allocated to a TSO user.

Hi.

 

I would like to see all dataset name allocated by Job or Asid or User
TSO from an operator console. 

 

How can I do in a simple way, through a MVS command or other?

 

Bye

Oh Lindy I dont know - free board and lodging, someone to clean up after 
you and cuddles whenever you want them and no other expectations at all. 
Not even taxes. You'll be looked after until the end of your days (if you 
choose your household well), so no worries about pension and stuff. Sounds 
like a good second choice to me!

The nasty part is testing bit fields in COBOL.  The LE bit test routines
are expensive to run.  (I haven't looked recently at COBOL to see if
there are native ways to do this that don't involve standing on one's
head.)

CALL 'CEESITST' USING WORD-VALUE BIT-SELECT FC BIT-VALUE
	IF NOT CEE000 THEN  
	CALL CEE3ABD USING U0300, CLEANUP-CODE
	END-IF.

If you've got a decent PL/1 compiler, processing type-30 records is 
relatively trivial, once you get the record layout defined. I just 
lifted that section from the mapping macro and did almost a 
line-by-line conversion. If anyone's interested, contact me privately 
and I'll see if I still have it somewhere, along with a program tht uses 
it for some basic reporting stuff.
