How to transfer PDSE libraries?

2007-04-03 Thread Maciej Księżycki

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.

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.

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.

Are ADRDSSU DUMP data sets FTP-able?  Even more, can they be stored
and forwarded from a non-mainframe platform?  I tried looking this up
in the RM, couldn't really reach a conclusion based on format
descriptions.

Re: How to transfer PDSE libraries?

2007-04-04 Thread Taylor, Clarence B
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.

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 ?

The idea of using DUMP/RESTORE was just because it's easier to dump several
libraries (and other kinds of datases too) to a single sequential output using
ADRDSSU generic name and nice selection criteria it has.

True but IEHMOVE does this as well . The output is 80/800 unless  
overridden.

John,

Well it was inflicted on us over 30 years ago. I thought the pain

Yes. I do it all the time. Use DFDSS to dump to a file, lets call it
DUMP.FILE. 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.
