TCCPU.DLPXV2.PARMLIB(CLRLOGON) - will have the login details of the server and TCCPU.DLPXV2.FTPOUT6 will have the file name with date as per the previous EZ' utility.



(For my information:

Hi Team,

1. We got a requirement to send a file from mainframe to (any) server (txt file format or any format). Txt file name should have rundate (eg:   OB_FILE_29012009.TXT).

Thought to write a program to obtain this naming convention. But, we have identified a Utility program (EZACFSM1) - a translation utility,  where we can get the rundate value to the file name like our &symbolic parameter.

This utility program is very useful to get the Current Date,Current month, Current Year, Sequence Number , so on...

Test job : TCCPU.DLPXV2.FTP(FTPDATE).

2. This utility can also be used with JCL to create the dataset with current date & time, Sequence number. etc  at the time of creation.
