Note on usage
Function: Activate openFT
User group: FT administrator
Alias name: FTSTART
Functional description
The START-FT command is used to activate the specified openFT instance. If you have not selected another openFT instance using SET-FT-INSTANCE, then you start the standard instance.
The command is only executed if openFT is not already active.
If the request queue contains file transfer requests for which the corresponding (remote) FT systems have also been started, these requests are started directly after openFT starts – provided the resources are available and no other start time has been defined.
It is possible to send SNMP traps, Console traps and ADM traps on START-FT.
Adequate steps must also be taken to ensure that all pubsets are available. Otherwise locally submitted requests that require unavailable pubsets are terminated with an error message. If this happens, the user cannot be notified by a result list or job variable.
If, in BCAM, the MAXMAP parameter of the BCMAP FUNCT=INIT command is used, the command must be unconditionally created before starting openFT.
If the openFT instance is to run under a virtual host name, the virtual host name must first be entered using MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS before the START-FT.
