Hi,

I know how to Transmit (XMIT) PS & PDS files from one node to another node.

How to transmit VSAM files from one node (IPC) to another node (IPC).

Please help.

TIA.

ranga_subham,

You CAN Only transmit sequential and partitioned data sets that have the fixed, variable and undefined record formats.You CAN NOT transmit ISAM and VSAM data sets, or data sets with user labels or keys.

If you really want to transmit the VSAM Cluster, then you need to

1. Repro the vsam file to seq file
2. Define the VSAM cluster with same attributes on the target node
3. Xmit the seq file from step 1 to target node
4. Now Repro the seq file to the vsam cluster on target node.

Hope this helps...

Cheers

Kolusu

Thanks Kolusu. I will try it out. I am worried about the huge data. The file consists of 160,000 records.

What is the speed of the circuit that you will transmit over and how large is each record ?

I would adrdssu dump the file and transmit the sequential dump file. I think that is the easiest way. You can even terse the sequential dump file to make it smaller (trsmain).
