SFG integration with Mainframe SFTP server Co:Z

Hi Team,

We have SFTP server on mainframe using product CO:Z.

In order to send files from open system to mainframe we have to set DCB parameters. Along with we want to trigger processes on mainframe.

ls /+mode=text ,lrecl=80,recfm=fb,space=cyl.5.5 ==> set transfer mode as TEXT, sent LRECL, RECFM, SPACE parameter

put RDMFX1.MFX2MF.SFTP.D0514 // ==> Transfer file to mainframe

cd //-jes.intrdr ==> set library to internal reader

put UFO040TD ==> sent trigger job to internal reader, so that it can run on mainframe scheduler

I have raised case TS019597288 with IBM and they asked me to log idea for this.

Kindly help

Thanks,

Madhuri

How will this idea be used?

this would help to send any customized command to the SFTP connection. Right Now I don't find this in SI.
