You can also just copy all the file from the DVD over to a CMS minidisk and
do your 2nd level install from there. Works well, can't use the one page

If you know the cuu, you can 'cd userid.cuu'. The FTP Server doesn't
know the disks by filemode.

Is there any method to send a CMS file as an attachment in an email?
We have applications which produce formatted documents like PDF's and
the user wants to send them to their clients, but sendfile incorporates
the files into the email, rather than attaching the file.
Any Help would be greatly
And do not forget that if the target is a minidisk, it may not be linked
in write mode by any guest when you do the FTP.

Others have given you good advice but I have given up on FTPing
directly to minidisks because you never know whan someone is logged on
to the minidisk account or is linked to it. In this case the FTP
will always fail.
I now FTP to the RDR of the CMS account. For my own account, FJH,
I never thought about this, but it's a great idea. There's no telling what
you'll learn when you watch this group... :-)

Just a note on FTPing to a RDR - the file is first transmitted to a work
disk owned by the FTP server. After the last byte is transmitted, the file
then has toSENDFILE'd (equivalent) to your reader by the FTP
server, and the FTP client doesn't hear from the server again until that
process
This may be obvious, but if you're running a vanilla VM system you should
increase the amount of spool space defined for the system before you start
doing a lot with this technique. You can't crash VM by running out of spool
space, but some very weird things will happen that are not obvious how

If VMUTIL misses processing a timed entry (because VMUTIL isn't
running), will is just run it again as soon as VMUTIL comes back up or
will it wait until the next timed occurance?
For instance, if an event is scheduled for each day at 6PM and VMUTIL is
down Wednesday at 6PM, but comes up
VMUTIL works on both date and time.
If you have an event scheduled for 18:00:00 and VMUTIL is not running
then the event will run as soon as VMUTIL comes back up because he
knows that event was missed.
In your, example VMUTIL would run the event would run at 8am Thursday.
What I don't know is
So is the solution to change the timestamp to the last properly
scheduled time? In my example, change the timestamp to 6PM Wednesday,
so that it gets scheduled correctly at 6PM Thursday? Assuming I don't
want it run off-schedule and skipping it is OK.

You don't have to. It's just more useful if you do.
You have to modify CHKIPADR if you want the server to present the user's home
filespace by default on succesful authentication.

Our DASD people have asked if they can replace our 3390-3 size DASD
volumes with 3390-9's. My tentative answer is that most of the volumes
that contain minidisks can be moved, if the new DASD has PAV. CP areas
such as paging should remain on 3390-3. Our SFS servers have
3338-cylinder minidisks,
The default value for keepaliv is YES. If it doesn't appear to
be behaving this way, trace the link when you start it with different
options and see what socket options are specified.
