Interactive File Transfers Using the z/OS Client
Interactive file transfers can be used from Unix System Services shells, for
example, OMVS, Telnet, or Secure Shell sessions can be used. If OMVS shell
is used, only non-interactive authentication methods can be used.
File Transfers Using the scp2 z/OS Client
The scp2 syntax is the following:
> scp2 source_file_name destination_file_name
Example 1: A Unix file transferred to a z/OS sequential dataset.
A file transfer profile is not defined in the file transfer command, so the
filename-matched profile is used if matched. In this case, the filename does
not match any of the defined profiles, so the default profile is used (text
format with codeset conversion).
> scp2 user1@10.1.70.193:source_file /_FILE1.PS
or
> scp2 user1@10.1.70.193:source_file /__USER1.FILE2.PS
Example 2: A z/OS sequential dataset transferred to a Unix file.
A file transfer profile is not defined in the file transfer command, so the
filename-matched profile is used if matched. The dataset name has the
".Z" extension, so the correct profile is selected automatically
(binary file transfer).
> scp2 /__USER1.PDS.Z user1@10.1.70.193:/tmp/binaries/file.Z
Example 3: A Windows text file transferred to a z/OS partitioned dataset member.
In this case, a Windows profile is used in order to do the Windows line
delimiter conversion correctly. The profile also defines codeset conversion.
> scp2 user1@10.1.70.100:textfile /FTADV:P=WIN/___USER1.WINPDS/MEM1
Example 4: A Windows text file transferred to a z/OS fixed block partitioned dataset member.
A windows profile is used for codeset and line delimiter conversions, but
additional parameters are required for defining the Fixed Block file format.
> scp2 user1@10.1.70.100:jcl-file /FTADV:P=WIN,O=FB,R=80/___USER1.WINPDS/JCL
File Transfers Using the sftp2 z/OS Client
sftp2 has the sput and sget commands that can be
used for mainframe file transfers.
Example 1: A Unix file transferred to a z/OS VSAM dataset using filename-matched profiles.
An sftp2 connection is opened and a file is transferred from Unix
to z/OS with the sget command.
> sftp2 user1@10.1.70.193
user1@10.1.70.193's password:
sftp> sget textfile.txt /FTADV:T=VSAM/__FILE1.VSAM
textfile.txt | 49B | 49B/s | TOC: 00:00:01 | 100%
sftp>quit
|
Example 2: File listing and several interactive file transfers between z/OS and Unix.
> sftp2 user1@10.1.70.193
user1@10.1.70.193's password:
sftp> ls
