I need to have files copied from my default Gateway directory to some other Gateway filesystem as soon as these files are received by the Gateway. How should I proceed? (Version: XFB.Gateway 6.8 under Solaris)

Hi rockstar,

You need to create a Decision Rule depending on the expected behavior and by selecting either batch command or PERL script.

In your batch command, use environment variables to move the file to the new location:
For example on UNIX:
------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

mv $x_path_name /your/new/location
------------------------------------------

See what are the available environment variables in the provided sample:
UNIX: xpr.sh
Windows: xpr.bat

I hope it helps.

Thanks Samir, this sure helps me get some leverage with the product.

[rockstar]

Is there a way to store the initial filename of the transferred file along with the file identification somewhere so that the file can be renamed to its original name once it is copied to its new location? This specific detail seems to be missing in the xper.sh sample script.

[Samir KHERZI]

I'm not sure, I think it's $x_file_name

If you want to see an environment variables, do a simple xpr.sh:
---------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

env >/path/to/a/writable/directory/env.out
---------------------------------------------

and see the result in the env.out.

You should be able to identify the variable you need ;-)

The initial filename doesn't show anywhere in the output of xpr.sh and $x_file_name is getting the value of "idf". This is the command that triggers the file transfer on my client box:
"cftutil.exe send type=file,fcode=binary,ftype=b,part=server1,idf=CIE_XGC_DEVL,
fname=d:\prod\gpx\data\xgc.csv"
The funny thing is that the filename is displayed by default if a batch command is not called by the decision rule. xpr.sh shows all kinds of file statistics, but no initial filename, so I suspect some transfer parameter is missing.

Hello,

Try to use x_file_label but it will depend on the protocol. But as far as I have understood your file has been sent by CFT so if it is, file_label will be the right variable.

Try to use x_file_label but it will depend on the protocol. But as far as I have understood your file has been sent by CFT so if it is, file_label will be the right variable.

No luck with x_file_label either. I'm still looking for just about any kind of workaround at this stage.
Below is the output of "xpr.sh". I see in it that "Protocol file name", x_application and x_file_name are identical (the value of CFTUTIL's IDF). The initial transferred file name is not showing anywhere, though.

Here's the Decision Rule:

direction = I
file name =CIE_XGC_DEVL
mode = R
originator = *
protocol = PHSE
remote agent = *
type = TRANS

Hello rockstar,

I think your problem is not at the gateway, because of

cftutil.exe send type=file,fcode=binary,ftype=b,part=server1,idf=CIE_XGC_DEVL

Did you define at the CFT your nfname at the idf (send template file)?

When you want to get the original file name on your gateway you must define at the CFT that this file name is send.

So you have two possiblities

1. cftutil.exe send type=file,fcode=binary,ftype=b,part=server1,idf=CIE_XGC_DEVL, nfname=XXXX (XXX is the remote file name)

2. define in your send template nfname=&FROOT.&FSUF (then the original File name is send)

regards

Sven

Hello,

Sure that x_file_label is the right variable but you have to put CFT in the send message field of the Gateway remote site which defines your CFT partner. Like this Gateway and CFT will exchange extra parameter which are not exchanged otherwise.

x_file_label is correspond to PI 37 in Pesit and it is the only PI define to exchange the original file name.

Regards

[rockstar]

Like this Gateway and CFT will exchange extra parameter which are not exchanged otherwise.

I modified the value of "s_snd_msg" as suggested and I'm now getting this:

Receive message : CFT B=0,R=512,O=C,S=14,T=B,F=U,X= ,Y=S,I=K2512344,G=,H=,L=,M=,P=821,U=account1,W=,0=d:\prod\gpx\data\xgc.csv,J=2;0;0;1;21;2;24;11;4;36

"x_file_label" is still empty, but I don't mind. At least now I receive the initial filename. Thank you all for your help!
