Using SSH Tectia Client on Mainframe

• File transfer to Unix from a mainframe partitioned dataset member using an advice string for defining the ASCII/EBCDIC conversion. The filename is defined with quotes so a full DSN (dataset name) is used.

  SSH Tectia scp2:

  $ scp2 /ftadv:D=IBM-1047,C=ISO8859-1/___user.test.file/mem1
    user@unix_host:testfile
  

  SSH Tectia sftp2:

  sftp> sput /ftadv:D=IBM-1047,C=ISO8859-1/___user.test.file/mem1 testfile
  

• File transfer to Unix from a mainframe sequential dataset using a file transfer profile for defining the ASCII/EBCDIC conversion. The filename is defined without quotes so the DSN prefix is added to the filename.

  On the mainframe host, create the file transfer profile configuration file ($HOME/.ssh2/ssh_ftadv_config) that contains a filename-matching profile:

  //.*test\\.file\\(.*\\)$ C=ISO8859-1,D=IBM-1047
  

  After the file transfer profile configuration file is set, the file can be transferred with the following commands:

  • SSH Tectia scp2:

    $ scp2 /_test.file/mem1 user@unix_host:testfile
    

  • SSH Tectia sftp2:

    sftp> sput /_test.file/mem1 testfile
