Configuring AFT from Windows to MVS

[neil_bt]

I'm trying to transfer a file from windows to MVS. But we're having trouble trying to configure the form. According to the doco, you need to enter the "fully qualified name" ?.

Do you have any examples of what a "fully qualified name".

Below is an example of the file we're trying to MVS:

MVS Directory: ZHU863.
MVS File Name: AK01.S.BTSFL.XMINT

We had this setup:

1) MVS target dest side file path directory of … ZHU863. (the default supplied by ControlM Agent by using the <SELECT> button in the GUI)

When we tried to save the form we got the below error:

"A file cannot be transferred to a MVS directory"

Does anyone have a example of how to setup the HOST1 (windows) and HOST2 (MVS) for AFT

Thanks
Neil

Hi,

the "fully qualified name" is the complete name of your MVS library (Data Set Name) where the target file is created.

Example:
dsn = <ZHU863.AK01.S.BTSFL.XMINT>
file= <target_file>

You put this definition in Job Editing Form:

/expl/jobs/trf/source_file on HOST 1
ZHU863.AK01.S.BTSFL.XMINT(target_file) on HOST2

Regards
Walty
