My Team leader give me the following instructions for
uploading SHARE.XMIT file.

1. Upload the xmit file to your MVS system using the following characteristics
- binary
- RECFM=FB
- LRECL=80

2. After the upload issue on TSO:
RECEIVE INDS(upload.dsn)

3.Copy INST member into your Library.

But i dont know how to do in ISPF.
Anyone please explain me how to do?

1. Allocate a sequential dataset using ISPF menu option 3.2, with the attributes specified in you number 1.
2. Go to ISPF menu 6 (TSO command) and enter RECEIVE INDS('upload.dsn'), where upload.dsn is the name of the dataset created in step 1.
3. When prompted, enter DA('destination.pds') NEW.

Hi,

Actually the XMIT file is located in my desktop.

When i send that file to HOST, by default it created a VB file.

So i created FB file with LRECL=80, and then i give this sequnetial fie
as destination while uploading from desktop to HOST.

But it throws 'INCORRECT OPTION SPECIFIED'

You MUST specify the parameters FB 80 and BINARY for the process to copy from your PC to the mainframe
