:

Setting value ranges from '6' to '65520' for the destination host lower than HULFT Ver.7, and it ranges from '128' to '65520' for the connection destination of HULFT Ver.7 or higher.

Explanation of Each Field

Each field to be set in Send Management Information is explained.

File ID

The ID to identify the file to send

Comment

This is the comment related to the Send file.

Send File Name

The name of the Send file stored on UNIX.

Specify the name using the full path.

In the environment that installed HULFT7 for UNIX/Linux-EX, you can specify a file that utilizes network resource. For details, refer to the explanation of networked files in Linux/AIX Administration Manual for the destination host.

Transfer Type

The data type of the file to send

FORMAT:

Format data

BINARY:

Binary data

TEXT:

Text data

MULTIFORMAT:

Multi Format data

Format/Multi Format ID

The ID where the Format or Multi Format of the Send file is registered

For details on the Format ID, refer to Format Information (UNIX/Linux).

For details on the Multi Format ID, refer to Multi Format Information (UNIX/Linux).

Format ID is mandatory when 'FORMAT' is specified for the Transfer Type. Multi Format ID is mandatory when 'MULTIFORMAT' is specified for the Transfer Type.

Compression Level

The compression level at the time of file transfer:

  • None

  • Horizontal: Compression within records

  • Vertical: Compression across records

Compression Unit

The record unit when compressing a binary file

This field is mandatory if the Compression Level field is specified with a value other than 'None' and also with 'BINARY' as the Transfer Type value. It cannot be specified in other cases. Defaulting this field sets '0.' If you set this field to '0,' compression is not carried out.

Code Conversion

The code conversion destination of the files to be sent

  • Sending Side

  • Receiving Side

  • No Conversion

EBCDIC Code Set

The EBCDIC code system that is used at the time of conversion from ASCII code to EBCDIC code:

  • Kana

  • Lower Case

  • ASCII

  • ASPEN

  • Standard

  • Standard Extension

  • NEC Kana

  • Kana Extension

  • User Table 1

  • User Table 2

  • User Table 3

= Remarks =

You can specify 'Kana Extension' if HULFT at the connection destination is Ver.7.3.0 or higher.

Send File Mode

The exclusive control of the Send file during send and the process upon normal end

Keep:

Does not lock during sending and saves the file after normal end

Clear:

Locks file during sending and clears the file to 0 byte after normal end

Delete:

Locks file during sending and deletes the file after normal end

Lock:

Locks file during sending and saves the file after normal end

Transfer Group ID

The ID where send destination of the Send file is registered.

For details on the Transfer Group ID, refer to Transfer Group Information (UNIX/Linux).

Pre-send Job ID

The ID of the job to be started before sending

For details on the Job ID, refer to Job Information (UNIX/Linux).

When omitted, the job is not started.

Successful Job ID

The ID of the job to be executed when sending file is completed successfully.

For details on the Job ID, refer to Job Information (UNIX/Linux).

When omitted, the job is not started.

Unsuccessful Job ID

The ID of the job to be executed when sending file is completed unsuccessfully.

For details on the Job ID, refer to Job Information (UNIX/Linux).

When omitted, the job is not started.

Interface DBID

This is the interface at the receiving side of the sent data:

CSV:

Converts the Receive file into CSV format on the receiving side

XML:

Converts the Receive file into XML format on the receiving side

When the Receive file received on the receiving side is in CSV format (UNIX, Linux, NonStop, and Windows) or in XML format (UNIX, Linux, and Windows), the above fixed characters are specified.

When the field is defaulted, the receiving in CSV format or XML format is not carried out. To establish interface, specify 'FORMAT' or 'MULTIFORMAT' for the Transfer Type.

Transfer Interval

The interval between Transfer Unit (Transfer Block Length x Transfer Block Count)

Transfer Priority

The priority in queue when starting the file transfer

Smaller the value, higher the priority.

Transfer Block Length

The length of one block during transfer

The product of the Transfer Block Length and the Transfer Block Count cannot exceed 65520.

Transfer Block Count

This refers to the block count that is transferred at one time.

The product of the Transfer Block Length and the Transfer Block Count cannot exceed 65520.

Shiftcode Mode

The shift code mode at the time of code conversion to Mainframe or to office computers

Marked:

Add shift codes

Unmarked:

Do not add shift codes

Interfacing with Exchanger

Interface between the Send system and HULFT Exchanger Option

Y:

Interface with Exchanger

N:

Do not interface with Exchanger

For details on interfacing with HULFT Exchanger, refer to the manuals of HULFT Exchanger.

Encryption Key

The key that encrypts the data.

You can apply security to the file to be sent. Enter the same Encryption Key as set in the Receive Management Information of the remote host.

When you default this field, the file is not encrypted.

Points to be Noted When Setting

Interface DBID

When the database ID (maximum 8 alphanumeric characters starting with an alphabet) used to load the sent data in UNIX or Windows database is specified, interface with 'DB Interface Option' is carried out. The Database ID cannot be specified using three upper case characters 'CSV' and 'XML.'

Note

'DB Interface Option' is a function to secure compatibility with the older versions.

Send File Mode

Multicasting will not be enabled if 'KEEP' is not set in the Send File Mode.

Replacement Message

By specifying "$MSG0" to "$MSG5" to the following fields, field values are replaced with the messages that are specified at the time of the Send File or the those specified at the time of the Send Request on the receiving side.

The fields that can be used for message replacement are given below.

  • Send File Name

  • Transfer Group ID

  • Pre-send Job ID

  • Successful Job ID

  • Format ID

  • Multi Format ID

  • Interface DBID
