CICS Explorer® uses
the z/OS® Communications Server
FTP server to gain access to data sets, z/OS hierarchical
file systems such as zFS, and the JES spool. For CICS Explorer to successfully obtain
the required spool files, the FTP.DATA configuration file for the
server must specify JESINTERFACELEVEL 2.
About this task
This task describes how to check the JESINTERFACELEVEL in
the FTP server.
Procedure
- Start an FTP client and run a quote stat command.
- Check the output to determine the JESINTERFACELEVEL. For
example:
230 userid is logged on. Working directory is "/u/<userid>".
ftp> quote stat
211-Server FTP talking to host 10.10.10.10, port 1087
211-User: USERID Working directory: /u/<userid>
211-The control connection has transferred 1360 bytes
....
211-Truncated records will not be treated as an error
211-JESLRECL is 80
211-JESRECFM is Fixed
211-JESINTERFACELEVEL is 2
211-Server site variable JESTRAILINGBLANKS is set to TRUE
....
211 *** end of status ***
ftp> quit
221 Quit command received. Goodbye.
- Optional: Change the FTP.DATA configuration
file for the server to specify JESINTERFACELEVEL 2.
What to do next
After you configure the FTP server, you must configure the CICS Explorer connections
to your CICS® or CICSPlex® SM systems. See Configuring a CICS system connection in the CICS
Explorer product documentation.
