Hello,

I have a J2EE Application which is connecting to Mainframe CA-Datacom using CACCI. I would also like to create a windows like interface where the user can see the different PDS and PS etc in mainframe and the interface will look like folders and files in Windows.

How can I get the directory and file listing from Mainframe? Is there any way I can utilize CACCI? or I will have to do it through FTP? If done through FTP, i believe the performance will be slow.

Thanks,
Subha

Once upon a time, the Common Communications Interface (CCI) was a way to interface with Datacom. How might this relate to creating your goal?

Lots of places run a full or partial catalog list and download this for use on Windows or Unix. It typically takes very little time to ftp/download (providing there is sufficient bandwidth to support the transfer.

I would like to reiterate that I am not trying access CA-Datacom-that I can do by CACCI, but I am trying to get the PDS, PS, VSAM listings from Mainframe and show it through a J2EE application.

Thanks,

Why was CCI mentioned at all?

Then do as suggested:

Is there some part of this that is not understood?

Keep in mind that the poster controls the usefulness of a topic. When interesting tidbits that have nothing to do with the request are posted, confusion results as well as loss of time.

Is JZOS a good option? Can somebody let me what are the requirements for JZOS? Does it have a part which needs to be installed in Mainframe as well?

Thanks,
