This chapter describes how to operate FX.
• Performing File Transfer Operations - UNIX
• Performing File Transfer Operations – Windows
FX file transfer operations are performed using the FCU GUI software installed on the open-
system host(s) attached to the TagmaStore USP and NSC subsystem.
The FCU GUI enables you to perform file transfer operations interactively,
provides access to detailed information on the FX source datasets and files,
and displays error information for FX operations. The FCU GUI also allows you
to create and modify FCU parameter definition files interactively.
When you perform FX operations that access datasets on -A, -B, or -C FX
volumes, FCU must have access to the FX volume definition file that defines
these volumes. When you perform FX operations that access ALC-generated
datasets on OPEN-x FMT FX volumes, FCU must have access to the separate
FXoto volume definition file that defines the OPEN-x FMT volumes. Since FCU
can only access one FX volume definition file at a time, the FCU parameter
definition files must also keep operations using OPEN-x FMT volumes separate
from operations using -A, -B, or -C FX volumes. Before you start FCU GUI
operations, make sure that the desired FX volume definition file is available
(datasetmount.dat in current directory) and that the desired FCU parameter
definition file contains FX operations which access the volumes defined in the
FX volume definition file. FCU will not be able to perform operations which
access volumes that are not defined in the current FX volume definition file.
