Is anyone quite familiar with Sending a file from a PC up to a Mainframe z/OS system ?? I'm quite OK with the reverse direction using GET 'mainframe dsname' xxxxxxxx.csv for example. I know it is PUT but cannot remember the order exactly. But it could be PUT xxxxxxxx.csv 'mainframe dsname' like that. But here's the other need. What are the parameters to specify the DCB to be created ? For example, I have a User EXCEL sheet that is 3000 bytes. So I want to make sure that RECFM=FB,LRECL=3000,BLKSIZE=27000 gets applied. And then how do you tell it how much SPACE in TRKS to use ?? THX
