I am getting an error "netout: broken pipe" when ftpying a file from Solaris to Mainframe.

The file size is 1620 MegBytes.

does your Mainframe allow such file sizes? (quota, etc.)

Broken pipe happens when the file descriptor gets closed.

Can you give me more details, eg part of your code, so that I can suggest something else.
Hi,
First try sending 100 mb file. If it works then it is file size limitation for MainFrame.
U can split file into smaller ones
Say split the file into 100mb pieces
split -b 100000000 file_name.
 then at ftp
mput file_piece*.
