Description of the long output of SHOW-FILE-TRANSFER

&pagelevel(4)&pagelevel

The long output is described using an example of an outbound request and an example of an inbound request.

Example 1 (Outbound request)

Full information is to be output to SYSLST on the FT request with transfer ID 721212. If the file transfer request was issued under the same user ID as that under which the inquiry is made, then the command is as follows:

/SHOW-FILE-TRANSFER                                                    -

/                   TRANSFER-ID=721212,                                -

/                   INFORMATION=*ALL,                                  -
/                   OUTPUT=*SYSLST

The recommended short form of this command is as follows:

/SHFT 721212,INF=*ALL,OUT=*SYSLST

The information output on SYSLST then has the following format, for example:

%TRANSFER-ID =721212      STORE  =16-12-11 14:09:35  FILESIZE=40960000

%   STATE    =WAIT        BYTECNT=2117632
%   INITIATOR=LOCAL       TRANS  =TO                 PRIO    =NORM

%   WRITE    =REPLACE     START  =SOON               CANCEL  =NO

%   COMPRESS =BYTE        DATA   =CHAR
%   TRANSP   =NO          ENCRYPT=YES                TABEXP  =NO

%   OWNER    =USER1       DICHECK=NO

%   PARTNER  =WIN01
%   FNC-MODE =TRANSPARENT

%   PARTNER-STATE =ACT

%   PARTNER-PRIO  =NORM
%   LOC: FILE     =$USER1.FILE.GR

%        TRANS-ADM=(USER1,88888)

%        ASYN-MSG =ALL
%   REM: FILE     =TEST2

%        TRANS-ADM=REMOTE-PROFILE

Example 2 (Inbound request)

Full information is to be output to SYSLST on the FT request with transfer ID 983050. If the file transfer request was issued under the same user ID as that under which the inquiry is made, then the command is as follows:

/SHOW-FILE-TRANSFER TRANSFER-ID=983050,                                -

/                   INFORMATION=*ALL,                                  -

/                   OUTPUT=*SYSLST

%TRANSFER-ID =983050      STORE  =16-12-11 14:09:36  FILESIZE=40960000

%   STATE    =WAIT        BYTECNT=1925120

%   INITIATOR=REMOTE      TRANS  =FROM               PRIO    =
%   WRITE    =REPLACE     START  =SOON               CANCEL  =NO

%   COMPRESS =BYTE        DATA   =CHAR               GLOB-ID =721212

%   TRANSP   =NO          ENCRYPT=YES                TABEXP  =NO
%   OWNER    =USER2       DICHECK=YES                RECFORM =VARIABLE

%   PARTNER  =WIN01

%   FNC-MODE =TRANSPARENT
%   PARTNER-STATE =ACT

%   PARTNER-PRIO  =NORM

%   FILE     =TEST2

%   TRANS-ADM=LAST

Meaning of the fields in the long output

The list below describes all fields which can occur in the long output (according to lines). Which fields are output in each particular case depends on the type and the parameters of the request.

TRANSFER-ID:

Transfer ID of the request

STORE:

The time at which the request was entered in the request queue

FILESIZE:

The size of the file in bytes. If the output is flagged with a "K" on the right, the output is in kilobytes. If the output is flagged with "M", the output is in megabytes. The size is only shown here if the request has already been active. In the case of receive requests, a value is only shown here if the partner also sends that value.

STATE:

State of the request

BYTECNT:

Number of bytes transferred up to the last restart form (in the case of data compression in compressed form)

INITIATOR:

Initiator of the request

TRANS:

Transfer direction, as seen from local system

PRIO:

Priority with which the request is to be started;
here: NORM for NORMAL.

WRITE:

Specifies if or when the receive file is to be overwritten or extended

START:

Requested start time of the request (SOON for “as soon as possible”).

CANCEL:

Requested abortion time
(NO for “no abortion requested”)

COMPRESS:

Specifies whether or not the file is to be transferred in compressed form

DATA:

Type of file:

CHAR

for text file

BIN

for binary file

NOT-SPECIFIED

in TRANSFER-FILE (NCOPY), no DATA-TYPE was specified

USER

for user format

GLOB-ID:

Global request identification, displayed only in the case of inbound requests from openFT and FTAM partners (INITIATOR=REMOTE). This corresponds to the request identification (=TRANSFER-ID) on the initiator system.

TRANSP:

Specifies whether the transfer is to be done in transparent format

ENCRYPT:

Specifies whether the file content is to be transferred in encrypted form

TABEX:

Specifies whether the tabulator expansion is activated.
Possible values: ON, OFF, AUTO.

TARGFORM:

Format of the transferred file in the target system:

SEQ

Sequential file format

BLOCK

Block format

TRECFRM:

Record format of the file in the target system:

STD

The same record format as in the sending system

UNDEFINED

Undefined record format

OWNER:

Owner of request in local system

DICHECK:

Specifies whether data integrity is to be checked (YES) or not (NO)

RECFORM:

Record format. Possible values: UNDEFINED, VARIABLE, FIX.

PROTECT:

Specifies whether the protection attributes of the file are transferred

PARTNER:

Symbolic name of partner system participating in the request.
If the FT request is in the STATE=WAIT state, and there is no normal internal resource bottleneck, then the partner name is preceded by one of the following characters:


*

The FT administrator of the local system has locked a resource.

!

An attempt to set up a connection to the partner system failed (possibly because
the remote system is not running, for example, or because FT has not been
started there or, in the case of TCP/IP connections, because the port specification
contains *BY-TRANSPORTSYSTEM and there is no BCMAP). This can
also occur, if openFT has discovered an error during the internal check of
transferred data integrity.

?

Installation error.


The cause can be queried with the FT administrator.
Possible reasons:


  • The PORT in BCMAP does not correspond to that in the partner entry.
    Check the installation.

  • The authentication of the local or remote system has failed due to an
    unsuitable public key.


FNC-MODE:

Encoding mode for remote file names and follow-up processing. Possible values:

TRANSPARENT

Encoding in transparent mode.

CHAR

Encoding in character mode (only possible for inbound requests).

PARTNER-STATE:

Status of the partner. Possible values:

ACT

Activated

DEACT

Deactivated

NOCON

No connection, for instance because the openFT server has not been started on the remote system.

INSTERR

There is an installation or configuration error (for example, the local system is not known to the partner or the address of the partner in the partner list is not valid) or authentication of one of the partners has failed or encryption is not available locally or on the partner system.

SHORT

A resource bottleneck has occurred on the partner.

PARTNER-PRIO:

Prioritization of the partner when processing requests.
Possible values:

LOW

The partner has low priority.

NORM

The partner has normal priority.

HIGH

The partner has high priority.

LOC:

Specifications on the local system (LOCAL-PARAMETER).
The entry can include more than in this example; the keywords correspond to the recommended abbreviations of the keywords of the transfer command; the meaning of the operand is also to be found there.

FILE:

Local file name

ASYN-MSG:

Specifies which request result leads to an asynchronous termination message. Possible values: ALL, FAIL.

MONJV:


Name of the job variable in the format :cat-id:$user-id.monjv-name if a job variable
has been specified in a outbound request..

REM:


Specifications on the remote system (REMOTE-PARAMETER).
The entry can include more than in this example; the keywords correspond to the recommended abbreviations of the keywords of the transfer command; the meaning of the operand is also to be found there.

FILE:

Remote file name

The following parameters are only output for locally issued requests.

TRANS-ADM:

Transfer admission (here for the remote system. Instead of the triplet user ID, account number and password where appropriate, REMOTE-PROFILE can also be output here if a remote FTAC FT profile is addressed. The equivalent also applies to entries in the local system.

CCSN:

CCS name used in the local and/or remote system when reading the file.
