Hi Dick,
Thanks for reply.I am having JCL to FTP the whole PDS or one PS. I need the JCL to FTP multiple PS or PDS in a single step.

Hello,

You can probably use the same jcl.

Just change the ftp control statements to send what you want to the destination (assuming all of the outbound is going to the same remote).

//FTPSTEP PGM=FTP,DYNAMNBR=50,PARM='xxx.xxx.xxx'
//OUT DD SYSOUT=*
//AMSDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//SYSPRINT DD DUMMY
//OUTPUT DD SYSOUT=*
//INPUT DD *
xxxxxx
yyyyy
ASCII
MKDIR 'yyyy.out.pds'
CD 'yyyy.out.pds'
LCD 'xxxx.in.pds'
MPUT *
QUIT

I am using the above JCL to FTP the whole pds.All the members in the pds 'xxxx.in.pds' will be FTPed to 'yyyy.out.pds'.

How can i pass the multiple pds in the above JCL?

Hi expat..

I tried that now.. It is also working.
When i tried first, i forgot to specify the host Pds member name.

Thanks you all.
