II10281: NETVIEW FTP GUIDE FOR SENDING DOCUMENTATION TO THE IMS SUPPORT TEAM

APAR status

• Closed as canceled.

Error description

• The purpose of this APAR is to provide information necessary
  when transmitting data/documentation via NFTP (Netview File
  Transfer Protocol) to the IBM Support Center for IMS .
  
  This procedure is valid for IMS.

                    NETVIEW FTP INSTRUCTIONS
  When supplying documentation requested by the IMS change
  teams these instructions should be followed to transmit
  the documentation using Netview/FTP.
  
  Sending sites must have STLMVS1 and server LUs ST11FT01
  and ST11FT02 (in the USIBMST network) defined in the
  Netview FTP node table.
  
  The destination should be specified as follows:
  
  ** The remote node (RMTNODE) for STL is: 'STLMVS1'
  
  ** The sending userid (USER= on JOB stmt) must be: 'FTPSEND'
  
  ** The STL userid (RSECURP) must be: 'FTPSTL'
  
  ** Allow compression to default.
  ***  ***   ***   ***   ***   ***   ***   ***   ***
  
  ** The dataset naming convention that MUST be used is:
   RFILEID='FTPIMS.PMRnnnnn.Bxxx.Cyyy.IMSrrr.zzzzzz'
    ==> 'FTPIMS' must be the high level qualifier
    ==> nnnnn = PMR number from RETAIN
    ==> xxx = branch office number from PMR
    ==> yyy = country number from PMR
    ==> rrr = IMS version/release (i.e. 510, 610, etc.)
    ==> zzzzzz = numbered dataset type (i.e. DUMP01, OLDS03,etc.)
        Dump datasets which cannot be formatted by IPCS, such as
        SYSUDUMPs, must use zzzzzz = 'SYSUDUMP' or 'DATA'.
  
  
  After sending the dataset(s) to STL, the associated PMR should
  be updated with the dataset name(s), file attributes, and a
  description of the dataset contents (i.e. syslog, SVC dump,etc.)
  
  ****************************************************************
  Sample job to send data to STL for the IMS change team:
  //NVFTPSTL JOB  USER=FTPSEND,...
  //STEP1   EXEC PGM=DVGIFBI
  //DVGLOG   DD  SYSOUT=*
  //SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*
  //SYSUDUMP DD  SYSOUT=*
  //SYSIN    DD  *
   FUNCTION=ADD
   XMODE=TO
   RMTNODE=STLMVS1
   RSECURP=(FTPSTL,FTPSTL)
   RFILEID='FTPIMS.PMRnnnnn.Bxxx.Cyyy.IMSrrr.zzzzzz'
   RSTATOPT=MNE
   QSTAT=RELEASE
   SNOTIFY='your.userid'
   SFILEID='dataset.name.of.file.you.are.sending'
  /*
  
  ** FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THESE GUIDELINES MAY RESULT IN THE
  ** LOSS OF THE DATA SET.  IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU RETAIN THE
  ** ORIGINAL DATA SET(S) FOR 30 DAYS FOLLOWING TRANSMISSION OR
  ** UNTIL CONFIRMATION FROM THE CHANGE TEAM IS RECEIVED TO ENSURE
  ** RECEIPT OF THE DATA BY THE SUPPORT TEAMS.
