Wildcards to send PDS datasets to Linux/Windows directories

Actually it's not possible to send PDS members from CDzOS to CDLinux or CDWindows, using wildcards, f.i. USER.PDS.DSN(*) to /user/path/*.

We have several applications that are using other products like XCOM or MQFTE, and with these products it's possible. But customer want migrate to CD, and it's not possible!

What is your industry? Banking
How will this idea be used?

We need to call CD with full wildcard support

    We are accepting the idea and planning it for future release. In order to firmly confirm the tech feasibility and solution approach, our dev team need to do feasibility study as this involves CD Linux and Windows platforms and this will take atleast few weeks considering the competing priorities and work load. By and large its a significant change and it needs to be addressed as part of the major release which is planned in 2H, 2024. This is not a commitment for next release and We'll keep you posted the updates as we progress. We'll do the solution validation with customer once we complete the study. Thank you for your patience and co-operation.


    Thanks,

    Product Management
