Sequential files are the most common forms of data transferred. Individual members of PDS files can also be sent as sequential files. Entire PDS libraries or multiple selected members can be transferred between two z/OS systems or to other systems running CA XCOM Data Transport r11 or higher. PDSE and entire PDSE program libraries are supported in CA XCOM Data Transport starting at r11. PDSE program libraries do not support wildcarding.
All three types of VSAM files (KSDS, ESDS, and RRDS) can be transferred between z/OS systems. These VSAM files must be pre-allocated, or they can be sent to non-z/OS systems as sequential files.
UNIX System Services (USS) files are also supported where an entire file system is stored in a single z/OS data set.
Extended Attribute data sets are supported when running CA XCOM Data Transport r11.6 or higher. This release level also introduces support for Extended Addressability Volumes (EAV).
ISAM, BDAM, IMS, FDR, and DFDSS data sets are not directly supported, but they can be put into a sequential format using native utilities before transmission.
