No FileZilla, since I could not use automated transfers in one or other way.
As promised, here is a generated Windows WinSCP script, I use to access a PS or
PO dataset's member:
For retrieving three members from two PDS datasets:
"C:\Program Files\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" ^
/ini=nul ^
/command ^
"open sftp://<id>:<psw>@<ip>/ -hostkey=""???""" ^
"lcd C:\<folder>" ^
"cd //HLQ1.<whatever>" ^
"get <membername1>" ^
"get <membername2>" ^
"cd //HLQ2.<whatever>" ^
"get <membername3>" ^
"exit"
It is a PITA, but it is working. Transfer OMVS files is a dream. No problemo
there!
I still prefer the FTP process from Automation software on z/OS where you can
do on large scale mulitple FTP transfers while renaming destination files using
wildcards, timestamps, etc. like this:
put 'HLQ.%%YESTERDAY' OUTPUT-%%YESTERDAY.TXT
It is hard to do the same tricks from a windoze machine...
Grab whatever utility you can use and live with that... ;-D
