(2) 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.

File Name

The name of the file stored on i5OS.

For a physical data file, specify in '<library name>/<file name>(<member name>)' format.

For an archive file, specify in '<library name>/<file name>' format.

You cannot use reserved words such as '*FIRST' or '*FILE' and so forth for the Name of Send file.

Specification of the file name with the reserved words may result in unexpected behavior of HULFT.

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 (i5OS).

For details on the Multi Format ID, refer to Multi Format Information (i5OS).

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

Code Conversion

The code conversion destination of the files to be sent

  • Sending Side

  • Receiving Side

  • No Conversion

EBCDIC Code Set

EBCDIC code system used to convert single byte 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

Exclusive access control while sending the file and the mode when it ends successfully:

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 (i5OS).

Pre-send Job ID

The ID of the job to be started before sending

For details on the Job ID, refer to Job Information (i5OS).

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 (i5OS).

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 (i5OS).

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

This field specifies the interval per sending 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 the host type without shift codes

Cut:

Deletes shift codes and makes the data smaller

Space:

Converts from shift codes to space characters

Subsequent Character

Mode of handling subsequent characters

Space Cut:

Cuts the trailing space characters

No Cut:

Does not cut the trailing space characters

Encryption Key

The key that encrypts the data.

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

When you default this field, encryption of the data is not carried out.

(3) Points to be Noted When Setting

Send File Mode

Set the Send File Mode to 'K' when you would like HULFT to carry out multicasting.

Where the Send file is a physical data file, HULFT carries out 'Clear' or 'Delete' against the member of the physical data file respectively, when you specify 'C' or 'D' for Send File Mode.

Interface DBID

If you specify Database ID to be used when send data is loaded in UNIX, NonStop, or Windows database (Alphanumeric characters within 8 bytes starting with an alphabet), interface with 'Database Interface Option' is enabled. 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.

Replacement Message

Specify '&MSG0' to '&MSG5' in the following fields to replace them with the sent messages.

  • Send File Name

  • Transfer Group ID

  • Pre-send Job ID

  • Successful Job ID

  • Format ID

  • Multi Format ID

  • Interface DBID
