Download-Upload files support on Desktop 3270 terminal

[Kostantinos Zafiropoulos]

Hello

We are to install Zowe Desktop 3270 termial. Is the upload/download files to/from host (similar to IBM PCOMM p.6 option) supported ?

Kind regards

Hi Kostantinos,

The Zowe Desktop TN3270 is a very basic terminal. All possible settings (related to connection only) are on the screenshot. 

No file manipulation is supported by TN3270.

However, there is the Editor application, which supports downloading and uploading of Unix System Services files and downloading members.

For batch processing or processing a large amount of files, I can recommend you Zowe CLI, which is a client side Command Line Interface.

And finally, there is an Extension to VScode, called Zowe Explorer, allowing file manipulation.

Regards, Martin

Thank you for the recommendation.

Where can I find the Editor? I can only see the following appilcations on my Zowe v3 desktop:

I am reading the Zowe Editor page:

Using the Editor | Zowe Docs

Kind regards

Hi Kostantinos,

There is an issue with Zowe Editor in V3: https://docs.zowe.org/v3.0.x/whats-new/release-notes/v3_0_0/#known-issues

You should be able to use it with the suggested hint, for example: https://example.com:7554/zlux/ui/v1/ZLUX/plugins/org.zowe.zlux.bootstrap/web/?use-v2-desktop=true
