Explanation of Each Field

The following describes the fields that are configured in the Transfer Conditions Information.

For a field for which you select an option from the list, the following shows both the options that are displayed on the screen and the values that are described in the CSV file to be used for Collecting and Distributing System Management Information.

(A1) Transfer Destination Host Name

This field specifies the host name of the transfer destination host.

This is the host name of the host that appears to the right of the route when you display Transfer Conditions on the Transfer Information screen, or the Transfer Destination Host Name that appears in the Transfer Conditions section during Editing of Transfer Information on the Collecting and Distributing System Management Information screen.

(A2) Transfer Destination Service Name

This field specifies the service name of the transfer destination host.

This is the service name of the host that appears to the right of the route when you display Transfer Conditions on the Transfer Information screen, or the Transfer Destination Service Name that appears in the Transfer Conditions section during Editing of Transfer Information on the Collecting and Distributing System Management Information screen.

[Note] You need to register the information about the transfer destination host that is specified for the Transfer Destination Host Name and the Transfer Destination Service Name in the Transfer Destination Host Information in advance.

(A3) Communication

This field specifies the reference destination for the Transfer Conditions.

Description
Defer to System Setting S HULFT-HUB Server operates according to the settings for the Connect Retry Count (SocketRetryMax), the Connect Retry Interval (SocketRetryInterval), and the Socket Timeout (SocketTimer) in the System Environment Settings.
User Settings U HULFT-HUB Server operates according to the settings for the Connect Retry Count (SocketRetryMax), the Connect Retry Interval (SocketRetryInterval), and the Socket Timeout (SocketTimer) that the user configured on the Transfer Information screen.

(A4) Connect Retry Count

This field specifies the number of times to try reconnecting if socket connection fails.

The value that is specified for the Connect Retry Count (SocketRetryMax) in the server's System Environment Settings is set as the default value. When '0' is specified, reconnection is not carried out.

(A5) Connect Retry Interval

4

This field specifies the interval to wait to try reconnecting if socket connection fails.

The value that is specified for the Connect Retry Interval (SocketRetryInterval) in the server's System Environment Settings is set as the default value.

When '0' is specified, reconnection is not carried out.

(A6) Socket Timeout

This field specifies the time-out value that the server uses to monitor for the occurrence of a state of no communication after a connection is established.

The value that is specified for the Socket Timeout (SocketTimer) in the server's System Environment Settings is set as the default value.

When '0' is specified, the server waits for a response indefinitely.

(A7) EBCDIC Set

This field specifies the EBCDIC code set for the receiving side host.

This field is mandatory if HULFT Multicasting via HUB is used and the receiving client is HULFT Ver.8.4 or higher, and not used in other situations.
