prompted for the migration filename to be used.

the file will be copied to group PUB when it is transferred to the host.
The tool will run and display any errors it encounters. If you see the message
‘Command successfully completed’, then proceed to the next step otherwise fix any
errors that need to be fixed. See the file c:\dtcmgr\exe\multidtc\multidtc.err for a
list of all errors that occurred.
The following message is only a warning, if this was the only error displayed, then
the generation of the migration file was successful:
The TAC is not supported on Host-Based Management.
Remove the TAC before downloading the DTC from the Host.

User> PC,manager.sys,pub
Password> (enter passwords, if any)
ftp> put <migration file> <MPE filename>;rec=,,v,ascii
(<MPE filename> must be a legal MPE filename.)
Example:
