Note: For FAL/FCU versions earlier than 01-XX-50, Multiple Volume Dataset is
not supported. When a dataset is spanned over multiple volumes, only the
portion of the dataset within one volume will be processed. For FAL/FCU
versions 01-XX-50 or later, Multiple Volume Dataset is supported only for
FXmto.
Note: FAL/FCU supports two kinds of mainframes, MVS and VSE. For Multiple
Volume Dataset, FAL/FCU is only supported on MVS.
Code Conversion (CC) Option
The code conversion option can be used for FXmto and FXotm operations. The
code conversion option enables you to specify either the default EBCDIC-ASCII
code conversion table included with FCU (see Table 2-1), or your own code
conversion table (see Table 2-2). When the default table is specified, FCU
performs EBCDIC-to-ASCII code conversion for FXmto operations and ASCII-
to-EBCDIC code conversion for FXotm operations as specified in Table 2-1 (see
also Appendix C). The user-defined code conversion table must be a binary
data file created by placing the target code values in the offset positions that
correspond to the source code values.
Always use code conversion when transferring text files between mainframe
and open systems. Do not use code conversion when transferring binary data
files. Code conversion is available (EcA option) but not recommended for
FXoto file transfers.
Note: FCU versions 01-01-40 and later support the user-defined code
conversion table.
Note: The default EBCDIC-ASCII code conversion table is the ACM standard
table (not CACM). Appendix C provides the code conversion information for the
default table which is shown in Table 2-1. If the default code conversion table
does not yield the desired results, create your own code conversion table.
Please refer to the IBM code tables for detailed information on EBCDIC-ASCII
code conversion.
