Automated downloading from mainframe to local area network

摘要

A tool can automate the process of downloading from a mainframe to a local area network (LAN). A back-end tool and a front-end tool can cooperate to accomplish the downloading process. Both tools can simplify the download process, avoiding complications and common errors. A user interface can provide features for simplifying the download process. Files can be downloaded from separate sub-areas on the mainframe to respective separate sub-areas on the LAN. Download settings can be saved and later retrieved via a name. Downloading for multiple software projects can be supported.
