Enhance SMP TRANSFERONLY PTF Download

If i Download PTFS/HOLDATA with the TRANSFERONLY option i have a unix directory with a few files and an Order Entry in CSI

The Order entry in CSI tells me the requested PTFS and or Holddata, but the exact content downloaded is unknown without RECEIVEing it. The download may happen in sandbox lpar. the received data may be used in other plex.


If an order is requested by Shop z Series a packaging list is provided. Support told me a workaround how to download this list if the batch Transferonly method is used.


There is a packing list shipped with every order. It's not downloaded as part of the order but you can dig it up.

If you bring up the url in the browser:

https://userid:password@deliverycb-mul.dhe.ibm.com

in the RECEIVE ORDER output - ie. you can find the userid and password

RSPUserid:"S06t90XX" RSPPW:"a265q872dsaf2070p"

Then drilldown into the DOC directory, you can find the packing list.


This package list should be automatically downloaded and put into a file in the receive uss directory and printed to SMPOUT in the download batch job.


Thanks.
