Hi,
 
try the option V608 while creating a transport-file from SAS-PC 6.12. The
CIMPORT on the MVS side does not need this option.
 
proc cport
  cat    = <your-catalog-file>
  file = <your-transport-file>
  V608 ; /* <--- Look at this option */
run ;
 
The SAS-PC Online Help says the following about the 6.08 Option:
 
"The V608 option creates a transport file that can then be imported
by running PROC CIMPORT on the 6.08 or 6.09 host.
The internal  representation of SAS/AF FRAME entries and
SAS/AF CLASS and  RESOURCE entries has changed in 6.11 to use
less space and to  improve dynamic object oriented inheritance.
These new file  formats are not recognized in releases 6.08 and
6.09 of the SAS  System.  The V608 option converts the new format
to the 6.08/6.09  file format during PROC CPORT execution.
This new option on PROC  CPORT is available starting with release 6.11."
