I'm not sure how this relates to MVS-only transfers, but x'5B' (in my
editor, dollar sign) cannot be used in file names sent to IBM TESTCASE in
support of SRs. The venerable tool PUTDOC has long handled dollar sign and
pound/number sign by translating to @:
/*************************************************************/
/* If the destination is testcase, replace any '#' or '$' or */
/* '{' in the data set name with '@'. @ALA*/
/*************************************************************/
Users of PUTDOC may not be aware of this translation--althhough it's fully
visible in generated data set names--but trying to directly FTP names
containing problem characters fails with a message about 'authorization'
or some such obfuscation.
