Performing Cross-OS File Exchange Operations

This chapter describes how to operate FX.

•Performing File Transfer Operations - UNIX

•Performing File Transfer Operations – Windows

FX file transfer operations are performed using the FCU GUI software installed on the open- system host(s) attached to the TagmaStore USP and NSC subsystem.

The FCU GUI enables you to perform file transfer operations interactively, provides access to detailed information on the FX source datasets and files, and displays error information for FX operations. The FCU GUI also allows you to create and modify FCU parameter definition files interactively.

When you perform FX operations that access datasets on -A, -B, or -C FX volumes, FCU must have access to the FX volume definition file that defines these volumes. When you perform FX operations that access ALC-generated datasets on OPEN-xFMT FX volumes, FCU must have access to the separate FXoto volume definition file that defines the OPEN-xFMT volumes. Since FCU can only access one FX volume definition file at a time, the FCU parameter definition files must also keep operations using OPEN-xFMT volumes separate from operations using -A, -B, or -C FX volumes. Before you start FCU GUI operations, make sure that the desired FX volume definition file is available (datasetmount.dat in current directory) and that the desired FCU parameter definition file contains FX operations which access the volumes defined in the FX volume definition file. FCU will not be able to perform operations which access volumes that are not defined in the current FX volume definition file.
