Did you specify the same conversion at both ends? E.g.:
quote site sbdataconn=(IBM-1047,ISO8859-1)
locsite sbdataconn=(IBM-1047,ISO8859-1)
...? so whatever perversion is introduced at the transmitting end
might be undone at the other.
I had expected that translation would apply not to the names,
only to the content. I guess that's wrong.
Also discussed here recently:
EBCDIC
MODE B
... which transmits the data in untranslated binary. I don't know
what happens to data set names. And that combination introduces
spurious 0x40 in RECFM=VB data sets; seems to be no problem
with F or U.
Walt suggested specifying both names. That might not play well
with MPUT/MGET.
I hate EBCDIC!
