Operating Systems Solaris ftp flat file from MVS(OS390) to Solaris Post 61200 by douknownam on Monday 31st of January 2005 10:15:36 AM

ftp flat file from MVS(OS390) to Solaris

I've been working on this for a while and decided to see if anyone else here had this same issue. I'm trying to ftp a file from a mainframe (OS390) to Solaris. Obviously this is easily done, however the file is somehow being stripped of data in comparison to the way we transfer the file via a reel tape. The data coming from the tape is 93M larger than the file via ftp. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening? Smilie

NAME
tcopy - copy a magnetic tape SYNOPSIS
tcopy source [destination] DESCRIPTION
The tcopy utility copies the magnetic tape mounted on the tape drive specified by the source argument. The only assumption made about the contents of a tape is that there are two tape marks at the end. When only a source drive is specified, tcopy scans the tape, and displays information about the sizes of records and tape files. If a des- tination is specified, tcopy makes a copies the source tape onto the destination tape, with blocking preserved. As it copies, tcopy pro- duces the same output as it does when only scanning a tape. The tcopy utility requires the use of Berkeley-compatible device names. For example, example% tcopy /dev/rmt/1b /dev/rmt/2b ATTRIBUTES
