The FT system only generates a results list for an FT request if this is explicitly requested. By default, no list is printed (LISTING=*NONE) since the log records provide information about the success or failure of the request. It is therefore not essential to print a list for each request.
If a result list is required, it can be automatically output at a printer (LISTING=*SYSLST) or saved to a PS data set with the following properties (LISTING=*LISTFILE):
Volume: the same volume as for non-existent receive files. The FT administrator can specify the volume for these (the same for all transfer requests). If the FT administrator has not specified a volume, the system defaults for newly created files apply.
Name: <userid>.<inst>.T<transfer-id>.LST
If the "transfer-id." consists of more than 7 characters, it is split into two parts in this name as follows:
<userid>.<inst>.T<part1-id>.T<part2-id>.LST,
where "part1-id" always has a length of 7 characters and "part2-id" a length of 1 to 3 characters.
"user-id" is the user ID which was specified in the local TRANSFER-ADMISSION.
The file containing the result list is not created until the follow-up processing, if any, has been started. It is not possible, therefore, to access this file in follow-up processing.
If the result list file is to be automatically output to a printer, openFT sets up a job for this purpose, which it presents to the Internal Reader.
The FT administrator can predefine the basic structure of the job generated by openFT to print the result list. Further information is given in the manual "openFT (z/OS) - Installation and Operation".
