IBM CDI5UG1107 manual SNODENVIRNremote-environment-name, FDSN‘from data-set-name’

Sending a File 23

SNODENVIRN(remote-environment-name)

specifies the 1–10 character alphanumeric name for the receiving node environment: OS400, OS390, MVS, MSP, OPENVMS, TANDEM, UNIX, VM, VOS, VSE, Microsoft Windows, or Microsoft Windows_NT.

FDSN(‘from data-set-name’)

specifies the file to be sent to the remote node. The file name can be up to 256 characters long. File names are verified based on the i5/OS standard file name conventions.The entire data set name must be in single quotes. If you are using the Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS F4 prompting feature, the system supplies the single quotes if you do not type them with the data set name on the command line. The length of the input field displayed is 132 characters, by default. To increase the length of the field to 256 characters, type an ampersand(&) followed by a blank in the first two positions of the field.

Note: The values of *LIBL, *CURLIB, and QTEMP cannot be used when sending to or from an iSeries system using Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS. A specific library name must be used for copying from or to a data set on the iSeries.

Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS supports two file systems: native file system and integrated file system. Refer to the Using the File Systems on page 19 for detailed information about the file systems.

TDSN(’to data-set-name’)

specifies the receiving file name on the remote node. The file name can be up to 256 characters long. The length of the input field displayed is 132 characters, by default. To increase the length of the field to 256 characters, type an ampersand(&) followed by a blank in the first two positions of the field.

Note: Do not use member names longer than eight characters when sending to z/OS, VSE or MSP nodes. The results are unpredictable.

For TDSN, the values of *LIBL,*CURLIB, QTEMP cannot be used when sending to or from an iSeries system using Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS. A specific library name must be used for copying from or to a data set on the iSeries.

TDSN specifies the destination file name. File names are verified based on the i5/OS standard file name conventions. The entire DSN must be in single quotes. When you are using the Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS F4 prompting feature, the system supplies the single quotes if you do not type them with the file name on the command line.

Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS supports both the native file system and the integrated file system. Refer to Native File System on page 19.

Note: If the TDSN requires a password, specify the password in the TDSN after the data set name. A slash (/) must follow the data set name and precede the password. This password is used at data set allocation. If it is not correct, the system issues a Write to Operator Request (WTOR) which requests the password when Sterling Connect:Direct opens the data set.

The following table summarizes the data set name requirements for Sterling Connect:Direct platforms.
