Re: Whats the best way to transfer dasd from z/os to Hercules
We don't know how the Cylinder field is filled. If a LH from a 2 bytes
field was used, it would sign extend the high order bit of x'1' from
32K+1 to 64K.

A 3390-54 has 65520 cylinders; a -27 has half that number.

Re: Whats the best way to transfer dasd from z/os to Hercules
Is the number of cylinders 2 bytes signed?
2 bytes logical can get you to 64k.
And if you want EAV you are going to need more bytes.
Right now it is 16 *64k = 1M (849G) for the current z/OS.

Re: Whats the best way to transfer dasd from z/os to Hercules
The steps to use CCKDDU64 are fairly straightforward.
1) Once-off build/preparation of the CCKDDU64 load module.
2) Execute CCKDDU64 (batch job) to dump a volume.
3) Binary FTP the resulting output

Do you have a copy of the CCKDDU64 load module that works that you can share?? Alternatively, if you can explain the process you used to assemble/link it on the mainframe side that would be great

I meant the mechanics or process of dumping a volume on a "real" mainframe z/OS in some format that I can transfer that volume to be used under Hercules z/OS.

If it was on emulation, he'd already have a DASD image to work with. At
least in my case, it's a real machine.
