TIBCO® Managed File Transfer Platform Server for z/OS 8.1.0

# PDS Support

The Platform Server supports transfers of libraries between z/OS systems.

The following functions for library transfers are supported:

- Transfer of individual members.
- Transfer of complete libraries.
- Transfer of members with wildcard.
- Renaming of members that are transferred.
- Transfer of members between PDS and PDS/E datasets.
- Transfer of LOADLIBs between PDS datasets.
- All member directory information is sent along with the member.
- Alias members are fully supported.
- dataset allocation attributes are sent to the receiving system.
- dataset allocation attributes can be overridden.

The two restrictions to Platform Server PDS support are as follows:

- The Platform Server does not write data to a PDS/E program library.
- The Platform Server does not send an alias alone without the actual member.

Note: When you attempt to send or receive a library and the remote system does not support library transfers, the Platform Server will end the transfer and display a message on both the local and remote systems which indicates that the remote system does not support library transfers. The transfer request is purged from the request queue afterwards.
