Attempting to FTP a file from a server to a tape on the mainframe and are getting a 3712 return code.

Question & Answer


Question

Getting IEF142I condition code 3712 trying to FTP and receive a file from a server to a tape on the mainframe.

Answer

The 3712 return code is actually the Modulo of 16000/4096. The remainder. PQ39674 explains this. So the FTP return code is actually 16000. This is a GET command that failed for a parameter error. In this case the syntax of the get command is incorrect. The command entered was GET FILE.BIN //DD:TAPEDSN where //TAPEDSN DD DSN=FILE.RECEIVE.BACKUP.TRS,UNIT=VTFM .

Changing the GET command to GET FILE.BIN 'FILE.RECEIVE.BACKUP.TRS' resolved the failure.
