Hi,

Can any one throw some light on the below question.

How to find if a file is to be received in mainframes when other mainframe user send.

Is there any common place where the files are stacked/stored temporarily when one mainframe user sends the file.

If it is the case, please let me know how to find it.

Hello,

Suggest you speak with your Scheduling people.

They can set things up so that the arrival of a particular dataset causes some process to be submitted.

When I do a login to my regions then all the consol messages are displayed before I get into TSO/ISPF and if someone has sent me a file then it would appear there as fyi.

@Rohit, that is true for XMIT. But how about FTP and other transfer tastes?

The logon exec must be issuing the RECEIVE command on your behalf. You can issue it at any time.

If a data set was sent to you, the name will be be shown to you so that you can receive it. You can type End to delay receiving the data set.
