Linux Process Accounting data can be transported into CA MICS
using File Transfer Protocol (FTP) via the mainframe or PC.

The following steps can be used to perform a FTP transfer of
Linux Process Accounting data from a Linux session to a z/OS
host system:

         attributes:

         Blksize=256 Lrecl=256 Recfm=FB Dsorg=PS

         FTP <hostname>

         where <hostname> is the machine name or the IP
         address of the z/OS system.

         Supply the host userid and password as prompted.

 ___ 3.  Set binary transfer mode by entering the following
         command (in lower case):

         binary

 ___ 4.  Set the local directory name of the Linux directory
         (in lower case):

         where <directory> is a directory on Linux which
         contains Process Accounting data.
