Output fron SITE JESSOWNER=* command: >>>SITE JESOWNER=* 200-JESINTERFACELEVEL=1. The value of JESOWNER cannot be modified. 200 SITE command was accepted I am trying to get the output from a job I submitted via FTP, so the owner the same as the userid I am using for FTP.

Passive does make a difference. Once I use passive to force the server to initiate the connections, I am getting different errors.

Re: grabbing JES output via FTP
The last I was aware, JESINTERFACELEVEL=1 required the jobname of the output to be retrieved to effectively be USERID()+1 character to be able to retrieve output. I requested to move to JESINTERFACELEVEL=2, but got pushback (IIRC) due to SDSF SAF requirements; Something along the lines of "We can't because we don't use SDSF". I am happy to now see the following not in more recent doc: "You are not required to have SDSF to use JESINTERFACELEVEL 2. If you do not use SDSF, you need to create SAF profiles. Both SDSF and JESINTERACELEVEL 2 use the same SAF profile names." https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.2.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r2.halz001/ftpserverjesinterfacelevel.htm -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

Why is that still a thng? How will that play with 8-character user IDs? The TSO/E Command Ref. says, "...optionally, can include one *or*more* additional characters [emphasis added]...". Couldn't this have peculiar consequences when one user's ID is a prefix string of another's?

Our installation used that exit and permissions to installation-specific RACF profiles to restrict what RACF userids (which were primarily CICS and TSO users) were authorized to login to FTP and which of those were further authorized to use filetype=jes, so that users who hadn't been properly trained or whose job function gave them no legitimate reason to access FTP or FTP filetype=jes wouldn't be given these tools and create unanticipated exposures. Someone with a RACF userid who hasn't been granted TSO access and trained in TSO/ISPF would be less likely to have the training to know whether jobs they might submit to MVS via FTP were reasonable; and those with TSO/ISPF access have much better interfaces than FTP to submit and access JES jobs. At least before my retirement, there had never had any need or requests for more than one or two userids to use FTP filetype=jes (and those were in Tech Services, because some vendor made part of their MVS product maintenance support dependent on that feature). Not saying the site in question has done something like this, but that's one possibility. Joel C. Ewing. -- Joel C.
