Volumes

openFT can transfer all files located on public or private direct-access volumes ("direct access storage devices", DASD). The following conditions apply to processing files:

• the user must have cataloged the files in the system catalog before the transfer.

• the user must have mounted the private volume before submitting the file transfer request.

openFT can read any multivolume files as send files. The following should be noted when writing to multivolume files:

• PO data sets cannot be written to multivolume files.

• Data sets with more than 20 volumes cannot be extended.
