We’re issuing a SEND from an AIX machine to a Z/OS mainframe (MVS) in the format as hinted at below.

cftutil send part=mainframe, idf=AIXtoMVS, fname=/testdir/testfile, nfname=’mvs.gdg.dataset(+1)’

but we get an error “Open mode not allowed”.

the CFTMAIN job on the mainframe has “ALTER” access to the ‘mvs.*’ hierachy. and we’ve tried existing PDS and new PDS files with various HLQ’s and still get the same error.

Anyone any ideas?

p.s. CFT is version v2.4.1 m-3-18

cheers
