Problem

Transfer CFT 3.0.1 for z/os

Z/os 2.1

Transfer fails with "file not found" when the data set is on EAV

Resolution

This is a bug in Transfer CFT in regards of EAV support and system level.

The system version is tested to ensure it support EAV and to make use of the matching routine.

Unfortunately, the flag for the system version is wrongly computed when z/os 2.1 and the EAV routine not called as expected for such a file. It makes the allocation impossible.

Issue is fixed in Patch to apply over the SP10
