File Transfers Using FTP/SFTP Conversion

SSH Tectia Client with EFT Expansion Pack (from version 5.1) provides an FTP-SFTP conversion functionality that enables users to use their existing interactive and unattended FTP applications and tools. FTP-SFTP conversion can also be used for file transfers from Windows and Unix clients to z/OS servers.

For configuring FTP-SFTP Conversion for Windows or Unix, see SSH Tectia Client User Manual. Once configured, existing FTP application can be used like before.

Example: Using FTP-SFTP conversion to transfer MVS dataset using existing FTP client application. All the standard FTP commands can be used.
