directory.

Rename the file to the B1S3Y62.zip(IBM reference number) using command:

  cp /dump/ /tmp/B1S3Y62.zip

 Then use send file to send ( FTP ) to a server where FTP deamon is

running:

 hscpe@hmc:~> sendfile -f /tmp/B1S3Y62.zip -h -d

-u

 Or

Do scp from the system where you are authorized.

Eg;

 scp hscpe@:/tmp/1S6WKL_iqyylog .

Get it  to your local desktop by doing ftp and then extract from zip file only the iqqylog.log file and mail that to IBM
