We have a file transfer tool, that is used to send data to z/OS, however if the
dataset is a gdg, and there is a disp=old on the gdg, the dynamic allocation
fails and the transfer job also fails.
We can have them run a script prior to the actual transfer and I want to be

Alan,
Having worked with both Hitachi and IBM, for open systems storage replication,
I can say that the method for handling replication on each vendor's storage is
completely different and would not work at all with each other. I can only
guess, that it also works that way for mainframe disk.
Mike,
I have normally been on the RACF-L list, however, since changing jobs last
year, I've had some problems with the e-mails from the list getting through to
my new e-mail address.
I, personally, have not seen work running without a valid RACF userid
associated with it, though I have been in

One of the reasons to use ACCESS(READ) ID(*) and not UACC(READ) would be that
the first forces the user accessing the programs to actually be a racf userid.
I believe, that if you have a job, come across via NJE, it is possible that the
