I haven't been following this but has anyone suggested setting up a CTC 
between the LPAR's. The connection is setup over Escon channels.

That will make a very reasonable physical connection; the next step is 
to configure software to actually use it. :-)


I vote for a NJE connection, with routing JECL where appropriate. It's a 
LOT less prone to error than trying to do spool OFFLOAD and LOAD.


Shared spool may be out for valid reasons.

The OP indicates that he already has TCP/IP connectivity between all 
LPARs and FTP servers running on each. Therefore, the JES FTP interface 
should be available without any additional configuration. (Though I 
would highly recommend specifying JESINTERFACELEVEL 2 for the FTP 
server configurations.)

Guess if all you got is PFCSKs  DEST='IP:ipaddr' might suffice w/o NJE
 
quote JCL  Reference
   DEST=destination
The destination subparameter for JES2 is one of the following:  
LOCAL|ANYLOCAL 
'IP:ipaddr'
name   
|  Nn 
|  NnRm   
NnnR   
NnnnRmmm   
NRmm   
|  NnRm   
|  (node,remote)  
nodename.userid
'nodename.IP:ipaddr'
 
end quote

Thank you all for all the great ideas.  Sounds like I am restricted to using 
FTP 
to transfer the report files.

I looked up info on the JESINTERFACELEVEL 2 option and it appears this will 
allow me to pull reports/sysouts that do not match my userid or owner among 
other things.  Does this parameter have to be coded in the TCPIP parameter 
library or can it be specified as a parameter in a batch jcl?

Also can you ftp a report directly from one jes spool to another jes spool or 
do 
I have to put the report in an intermediary dataset and then ftp that file to 
the desired jes spool output?

Regards,
Gil.

I would like to use this option however, if I use the 'IP:ipaddr' the jcl 
reference 
states that a functional subsystem that can process IP-distributed data sets 
sends the data to the specified host system.
Could you please translate what that means.
I see the report in the output queue sitting with a dest of IP but how does 
the report get transmitted across?

Gil.

The remote still must be either a NJE node or a RJE node/workstation.

2008-03-08 Thread Brian Westerman
Setting up NJE really isn't that difficult.  I can send you a short set of
directions for how to set it up if you want.  If your systems are both on
the same physical processor (2 LPARs), and if it's a z-series box with an
OSA/e or similar, it's even easier.  

I would bet that your systems people probably already have all of the pieces
there, they just need to put them in place.

Let me know.

Brian
