Rob,
I have a couple of questions on your script:
* You create a savf and then you clear it? Are they not created 'clean'?
* Then you 'PUT' it without ever having added anything to it?
* On the last line it looks like you have 2 commands on that one line, is that premitted?
I realize you probably just copied parts from a real script, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.
Thanks & Regards,

Subject: [EXT] Re: FTP changes the record format name
SOP is to save the file to a save file, ftp the save file, restore the object from the save file.
You can script this
PGM PARM(&RMTSYSTEM)
DCL VAR(&RMTSYSTEM) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(200)
OVRDBF FILE(INPUT) TOFILE(MYLIB/FTPSCRIPT)
OVRDBF FILE(OUTPUT) TOFILE(MYLIB/FTPOUTPUT)
FTP RMTSYS(&RMTSYSTEM)
DLTOVR FILE(INPUT)
DLTOVR FILE(OUTPUT)
CALL PGM(ANALYZER) /* Analyze FTP output */
ENDPGM
FTPSCRIPT may look something like
USRPRF
BIN
quote rcmd crtsavf file(ROB/ROB)
QUOTE RCMD CLRSAVF FILE(ROB/ROB)
PUT ROB/ROB ROB/ROB
quote rcmd RSTOBJ OBJ(SVRAUT SVRAUTR SVRAUTV) SAVLIB(ROUTINES) DEV(*SAVF) OBJTYPE(*PGM *CMD) SAVF(ROB/ROB) quote rcmd clrsavf rob/rob QUIT

Subject: FTP changes the record format name
Sent by: "MIDRANGE-L" <midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx>>
When I FTP a PF from one System i to another, FTP will preserve the
filename and member name, but it (apparently always) changes the record
format name from whatever it was to the same as the filename.
Example:
PUT DS_DATA/DS_PRDXF.DS_PRDXF DS_DATA/DS_PRDXF.DS_PRDXF
This successfully puts the DS_PRDXF file in the DS_DATA library on the
source system, into the same file/library on the target system.
So far, so good. The problem is that the record format name on the
source system is DSPRDXFR, but FTP changes it to DS_PRDXF (same as the
filename) on the target system.
Why?
This file needs to be FTPed to multiple libraries on multiple systems. I
do not relish the thought of having to transfer the DDL source member to
each system, and then manually create the file in each library on every
system.
Is there an FTP setting to prevent this behavior? I've searched the
archives, and I've Gaagled it, without success. Does FTP simply not
ignore the record format name, and assign a default?
FTPing to the same library name (on a remote system) or to a different
library name makes no difference. Same result.
All our systems are on 7.2.
As always, any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
