If RECFM=FB it ought to be comparably robust with BINARY transfers. Did you pre-allocate it? And it would save you the second job. And. I've extracted. pax -z output on a desktop by. piping through gunzip. Alas, TRSMAIN is UNIX-hostile. Wouldn't it be nice to pipe pax directly into TRSMAIN? (Cue Hobart Spitz.) Add Carmen's delay step. It won't solve your problem. But while it sleeps uou can display ENQs. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
