Re: Batch FTP Fails, Interactive works - what to change?

Peter,


Are the programs doing the override ILE or not - that would make the
difference.  With ILE, you get a mix of ILE (my program) and non-ILE (IBM's
programming for FTP).  My program runs in one activation group, IBM's in
another.  With ILE, if I take the default for the override, it only
overrides at the activation group level.  I needed to override at the JOB
level to get IBM's programming to see my files.

I am also on V5R4, and that might make some difference, although I have had
override issues at  5.1 and 5.2 levels.  Activation groups have not changed
that much from V5R1 to V5R4.

Hi Jim, Elvis,

That's odd. I have customers with V5R1 and V5R3, both using a similar
CLP that does the two overrides then the FTP command; neither of the
overrides specifies the scope, and the default on both systems is the
activation group, yet they've been working for years running it in
batch.  APAR *SE19855 indicates that it applies to V5R1, V5R2, and V5R3,
and it didn't mention any PTF to change the behavior of FTP.  Why is it
working!?
