How to transfer PDSE libraries?
We are on z/OS 1.7. We have a problem with automated copying PDSE libraries between two systems. We had been using BDT until we needed to copy PDSE datasets. For some reasons we cannot use shared DASDs and IEBCOPY - which seems to be the simplest solutions. Can anyone suggest a product that will do the job?

XMIT the PDSE to a flat file. FTP (binary) the Xmitted file. RECEIVE the file on the target system.

Hello Maciek: If you or your client has a copy of CA-XCOM (the mainframe version at release 11) it will do that for you. http://www3.ca.com/solutions/Product.aspx?ID=145 Regards, Glenn Glenn A.

If JES subsystems on the two systems are connected via NJE, then just XMIT the PDS-E to a user on the other system, and RECEIVE it there; no need to go through the flat file and FTP in that case. If the two share spool, you don't even need an NJE connection.

Re: How to transfer PDSE libraries?
Have you tried ADRDSSU DUMP/RESTORE? You didn't say how far one system is from the other, but depending on the distance you can DUMP to a sequential dataset, ftp it to remote system (binary) and then RESTORE. If both systems are in the same datacenter I'd write it to tape or virtual tape. Walter Trovijo Jr. > > We are on z/OS 1.7.

Re: How to transfer PDSE libraries?
I use to TERSE the sequential file from ADRDSSU, ftp it, UNTERSE it and then restore. I found it very nice, much more convenient than xmit. If I remember correctly it even does VSAM but its been awhile so I'm not sure. There was some operand on the restore to allow me to change the name of the HLQ, which for me was a requirement. The only restriction I found was that sometimes at the target site, restoration was difficult, because apparently some sites restrict the use of the utility via RACF rules.

Walter Trovijo Jr. Somewhere along the line I had heard that ADRDSSU uses other IBM utilities to access various datasets. Like IDCAMS for vsam datasets and IEBCOPY for PDS(e)'s *IF* that is the case then why not use IEBCOPY ?

On your PC: ftp zos.com user password bin quote stru r get dump.file To upload ftp zos2.com user password bin quote site recfm=u lrecl=??? blksize=??? pri=?? sec=?? cylinders quote stru r put dump.file Replace the question marks with the appropriate values. For LRECL and BLKSIZE, set them the same as they were on the original DFDSS dump file. Or just use TRSMAIN to make the DFDSS file LRECL=4096 RECFM=FB. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
