I tried APPEND, I tried PUT since you said it implies replace.
In both cases I get this: (file is is at destination with no records,

Rather than using the generic data transport methods of FTP which are limited to just text or binary, and since CPYF was noted as a recovery attempt in a prior post, why not just use a TCP/IP DDM File to copy the data using a *database* data transport method? That is, the data is neither from a flat file nor a stream file of nondescript [beyond fixed record length or EOL markers to describe] text data or binary data. Since the data is apparently from an externally described database file member per the target file member being created as a DDS\externally described database file, then CPYF of a DDMF on the source system /pointing/ to the database file [member] on the target system can directly invoke the database I/O to send the data. No save\restore required.
