UNIX disk MVS

 

ftp mvs          # via ethernet
ftp mvs128       # via tokenring, RS/6000 only

You are prompted for account and password, then type:

binary                             # important !!!
get  <remotefile> <unixfile>
put  <unixfile> <remotefile>
quit

Note that simply putting data from a UNIX system to MVS will not create a record-structured file on the target node. Such files cannot be read by RAW/INPUT or DST/INPUT, although no data are really lost. To put data from UNIX to MVS you use

binary                             # important !!!
quote site REC=FB BL=16384 LR=8192 PRI=8000 SEC=2000 BL # for raw data, 131 MB  
quote site REC=FB BL=18000 LR=3600 PRI=4000 SEC=2000 BL # DST files, 72 MB
put  <unixfile> <remotefile>
quit

An alternative is to use MVS as a client, see . See also how to use the name mapping and multiple file transfer capabilities of UNIX-triggered FTP.
