I found that it was easier to get a directory listing and run it through a
quick little program to generate the individual FTP commands - then I
didn't have to worry about anything and could more easily control the
outcome. This has been a good discussion, and I am so glad for all your
contribution
I'm not a big fan of the "Irisch commands" (OEDIT, OGET, etc.), but for the
problem at hand, OGETX with the SUFFIX() operand might be useful. All suffices
must be the same, and the remaining name must be a valid member name.

If you really need them in a PDS (why?), you can:

He wants to do it in z/OS batch anyway, so the whole thing can be done in
one job.
You had s missing ) in your snippet. To also clean up:
for i in *.BIN;do cp -T ${i} "//my.

Sorry for the holes in my description...I do issue the BIN command right
below my login - missed that in my cut/paste. I am on z/OS 2.1, and trying
to do this in FTP batch mode.
MGET does not allow a from/to filename...it only works with LCD, and will
use the filename on the MGET command.
I will

Or you could MGET them into a z/OS UNIX directory, where the naming
rules are far more liberal:
...
LCD /u/my/fixes
.

What are you using to do the FTP? Batch? 3th party product? Programmatically?

ASCII for binaries?

This is just a SWAG, but can you do "mget *.BIN * (REPLACE"?

This group has been so helpful to me in the last couple weeks, and I hope

I am trying to download a group of fixes from our server into a PDS, to do
some reporting on it. I am not sure what my problem is, but let me explain
the commands I am using.
