You can use the -TVFS option to enable or disable the TVFS (Trivial Virtual File System).

ON | OFF |
ON
TVFS is enabled, in other words, DVS and POSIX files can be accessed via a standardized file system similar to POSIX. For further information on the TVFS, see the "FTP client in BS2000" section in the "interNet Services User Guide".
If you use mainly FTP clients with a graphical user interface, you should select ON. If the respective FTP client provides an option to send additional (proprietary) commands to the server at the beginning of the session, you may also enable or disable the TVFS as necessary for the respective FTP session using the BS2000-specific FTP server command svfs. For details on svfs, see the "FTP servers in BS2000" section in the "interNet Services User Guide".
OFF
TVFS is disabled.
OFF is the default setting because an option is provided here that enables you to use file partial qualifiers as pseudo subdirectories, which meets the needs of human users.
