Re: Weird result creating a SAVF via FTP

I'll bet the "quote "CRTSAVF MYLIB/MYSAVF" " line is not working. FTP would create a PF if the file does not exist by default.
In my scripts in WinSCP I use "site quote "CRTSAVF MYLIB/MYSAVF""

Subject Weird result creating a SAVF via FTP

I have a .bat file on my windows PC that needs to connect to an IBM I,
create a SAVF, and then upload a file from the PC into the SAVF. My script
file is as follows:



open systemname

userid

password

quote "CRTSAVF MYLIB/MYSAVF"

bin

put file.savf mylib/mysavf

close

quit



This creates a PF named mylib/myfile. It does not create a SAVF. If the
file already exists, I get an error that CRTSRCPF failed. Why is it
converting the CRTSAVF to a CRTSRCPF? How do I get it to create the SAVF?



This is on a 7.4 machine that is current (as of Monday) with PTFs.



This is going to connect to 8 different machines so I'd rather not log into
each one of them to do the CRTSAVF.
