The File Allocation Information screen is used to specify allocation parameters for a new data set. The parameter available on the File Allocation Information screen corresponds to standard z/OS data set allocation definitions.
This screen is automatically displayed if a non‑existent file is specified in the Local File Name field of the Receive File From Another System screen. The screen can also be invoked by pressing the PF12 key on the Receive File From Another System screen.
If the remote system is a z/OS system, and the file specified in the Remote File Name field on the Send MVS File to Another System screen does not exist. Press the PF12 key to invoke the File Allocation Information Screen. If the Remote File Name field is blank, the name in the Local File Name field is used as the Remote File Name.
When the screen is called from the Send MVS File To Another System screen, any allocation parameters that are set on the screen describe the file on the remote system. When the File Allocation Information screen is called from the Receive File From Another System screen, any allocation parameters on the screen describe the file on the system initiating the receive operation.
