Hi,
My FTP statements:
cd /main/country
pwd
ebcdic
put 'XXXX.XX.XX.XXX' xx.txt
quit
The above FTP statements were working without any issues for years now. Currently I am trying to enhance this FTP job to capture any issues by FTP itself by coding PARM=’(EXIT=nn’. But unfortunately this new FTP command with PARM='(EXIT=nn' threw an error and terminated the FTP process.
Job spool message:
EZA1736I /main/country
EZA1701I >>> CWD /main/country
250 CWD command successful.
EZA1460I Command:
EZA1736I pwd
EZA1701I >>> PWD
257 “/main/country" is current directory.
EZA1460I Command:
EZA1736I ebcdic
EZA1701I >>> TYPE E
504 Type E not implemented.
EZA1735I Std Return Code = 15504, Error Code = 00002
EZA1701I >>> QUIT
221
Any guidance to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam. |

Do you get any clues from this:
| Code: |
EZA1736I ebcdic
EZA1701I >>> TYPE E
504 Type E not implemented. |
especially knowing that using EXIT means any FTP error will set a step return code, whereas NOT using EXIT means you'll get a zero return code -- always? |

Thank you Robert.
Yes I did see it and I guess it is because that EBCDIC is not supported/implemented on the server side. This job used to get the same error (504 Type E not implemented) and RC=0 when EXIT not coded.
Is it possible to avoid the FTP termination at this level even with EXIT parm coded?
Please advise me if I am not clear on my question.
Thanks,
Sam. |

Yes -- either get rid of the EBCDIC statement or change it to a supported type such as BINARY or TEXT. The whole point of the EXIT parameter is that without it, you'll get a zero return code in the job step no matter what happens to the FTP. If you need to have EXIT, then you need to validate every FTP statement to make sure they are valid statements. |
