7.1 Transfer Parameters


Transfer parameters are set using a panel-driven system that
operates in VM.  Transfer parameters define the following:

    o  the medium that contains the input data
    o  the medium that will contain the output data
    o  whether to use data compression
    o  the names of the required files
    o  NJE transmission information
    o  spool file disposition

Figure 7-1 illustrates the parameter specification panels.
