File transfer
Sending Side Functions
The following functions are available to the host on the sending side:
-
You can compress the data to be transferred, and can set a transfer interval per data block. These functions can decrease the network load and achieve high-speed data transfer.
-
You can transfer a single file to multiple hosts on the receiving side by issuing the Send File once.
-
When you implement a file transfer as part of a business operation, user-defined jobs and other processing can be executed automatically before and after the Send processing, in accordance with specified conditions. This allows for business operations where Send processing results are associated with the subsequent job.
For details about these functions and other available functions, refer to Sending side functions.
Receiving Side Functions
The following functions are available to the host on the receiving side:
-
A single host on the receiving side can receive multiple files transferred from multiple hosts on the sending side, and then append and save the files to a single file. This allows multiple data files to be integrated into a single file and centrally managed.
-
Generations can be set to received files. This can be useful for file management, as the order in which files are received is retained.
-
A notification can be sent to the host on the sending side when receiving of files is complete. Also, the host on the sending side can start jobs based on notified result.
-
When a file is received on a Linux/AIX operating system or a Windows operating system, HULFT can convert the receive file into CSV format. The file in CSV format will be created separately from the Receive file.
For details about these functions and other available functions, refer to Receiving side functions.
Functions used for sending and receiving
The following are functions used for sending and receiving:
-
Select a transfer type appropriate to the format of data to be transfered to automatically perform Code Conversion. Also, because Code Conversion tables are available in accordance with the data and the host operating system, it is easy to exchange data between different operating systems.
-
You can send and receive files on a file server where NAS (Network Attached Storage) or Windows is used.
-
A data transfer method can be selected. Files can be transferred on the basis of the operating environment, including the network load and detection of a transfer error.
For details about these functions and other available functions, refer to Functions used for sending and receiving.
