What do you mean by the files are asleep and awake? I have never heard of those terms in relationship to files, nor have I heard of them in relationship to z/OS.

Since the files are too many they will go in sleep mode to save some memory itseems in MainFrame. I'm not a MainFrame person. Then if you need them u need to wake them up and get them. But my question is there a way to wake them up and get the file from MainFrame to Linux. This is the MainFrame issue files are going into sleep mode. When I issue sFtp COMMAND FROM unix TO MainFrame, it is throwing me an error """file is not located"""" though there is a file, but in sleep mode. How to wake them up and get it into Linux from MainFrame by using SFTP?

Thanks

I have never heard of this "sleep" mode on z/OS before and I have done some searching and I have not found anything even coming close to this.

Were did you get this information from? Can you point me to some doc?

Hi,

in general, if no one acces the file for 3 or 4 days, it goes to sleep. To wake them up you need to issue the following command.
