ISPF Interface

The Platform Server ISPF interface, also called the TIBCO MFT Platform Server for z/OS client, is designed for ease-of-use.

After the interface has been used to execute an action, only simple edits (for example, entering the dataset name of the latest dataset to be transferred) are required to execute a transaction that has similar characteristics to the last transaction.

To navigate the interface, select options from the main menu or use the pull-down menus to facilitate the file transfer procedures.

The following figure shows the primary window and command prompt of the Interactive interface:

From the primary window, you can also change the Platform Server information for the server to which the transaction is to be queued. A transfer can be queued to an STC (started task) via a PC call, an LU name via SNA, an IP address or an IP name via TCP.
