Re: ftp ifs file between partitions changing ccsid

FTP doesn't send objects, it sends a stream of bytes.

The CCSID on the original file isn't sent. Thus the receiving system has
to guess.

You can either use SAVE/RESTORE to send actual objects. Or pre-create the
file on the receiving system with the correct CCSID.

file contains only xml
on V7R1 partition used opt 2 in wrklnk (EDTF) to change a couple
characters for a test, no insert or delete.

This is before and after EDTF - the 0A (line feed) replaced by 8E ??

Now in the area of the change unrecognized characters (hex 8E) appear when
view from NotePad+.

Could be 2 unrelated issues - why the ccsid change from ftp?
Is EDTF for a ccsid 819 an issue or any other ideas?
