Re: IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for z/OS Version 6, Release 2
The latest from IBM:
"Hello Len,
The DGASACMP program will not accept QPL_FLAG_GZIP_MODE.
In our documentation (
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/connect-direct/6.2.0?topic=dgasacmp-parameters ) we
specify what parameters that can be passed to the DGASACMP program. I did a
Google search on QPL_FLAG_GZIP_MODE and got the following hit:
https://intel.github.io/qpl/documentation/dev_guide_docs/c_use_cases/deflate/c_deflate_zlib_gzip.html
This hit was in a 'Welcome to Intel® QPL Documentation' so I am not even sure
it applies to the mainframe... ZLIB is part of the operating system, not
Connect:Direct. If this flag also applies to ZLIB on the mainframe, you could
open a Request for Enhancement (or what IBM is now being referred to as an
"idea for a new product feature") to see if it can be added. If interested, we
can provide the instructions on how to open an "idea for a new product
feature".
Regards,
Ankit Karnwal"
Management's decision.
Thank You and Please Be Safe.
Please Note: I would appreciate it if you would please include my teammates
("rdc_applications_...@gdit.com") in future emails to keep them informed.

Even if they are not Mainframe based, they should have the
"utility" for their system if they are running Connect:Direct for
that system. Otherwise, they are going to fail the hand-shake for
the XFER protocols used by C:D, unless the new owners have made
other changes to have C:D use "FTP". But then I didn't work on V6
or later.

Yes. You can either run compression in a run task, and then send the resulting file to the target system, OR you can compress it via a z/OS job and then have C:D pick up the resulting file and send it. The receiving site, if they are going to use it, must know what you used for compression. When I was last working on C:D, there was a utility provided to do compress/decompress in "batch".

Good morning, Steve! Could you please provide an example of running compression in a run task and then sending the resulting file to the target system? Or point me to a manual that provides an example? Thank You and Please Be Safe.

What are you trying to accomplish by not de-compressing the file on the receiving system? Michael At 09:12 AM 5/22/2024, Sasso, Len wrote: Good morning!
