Hi All,

Here I have a small doubt that what is the max size of a file can we transfer through File Nodes ,If we consider whole file as a single record ?

Generally a bad idea to do this, for memory reasons.

Why can't you process it record by record?

No limit if record by record. Pass each one to the fileoutput node and it will accumulate them in the output file (in the mqsitransit directory) and move it to the output directory when you finalise the file.

It's here.

The limit is 100Mb unless you change that by setting the MQSI_FILENODES_MAXIMUM_RECORD_LENGTH environment variable in the running process shell (broker parses files into records, hence Whole File parsing results in 1 record).

As my associate correctly points out, reading large files as Whole File is a great way to run out of memory. Much, much better to stream them record by record.

If all you're trying to do is transfer a file from one place to another, there are a large number of better tools to do this. Any of the pantheon of File-Over-MQ tools or Connect:Direct for example.
