HI MFT guys,

1. Any one knows why fteCreateTransfer (with: -t text -dle LF) and fteCreateMonitor does not show -dle LF on MQExplorer ?

2. When running transfer with that monitor on WINDOWS, files are transfer from CRLF to LF. This is transferring files between 2 windows dir's. All is fine.


BUT

When running monitor to transfer files from Linux to SunOS, files are transfer as is with CRLF insted of transfer to LF !!!!

Any ideas?

Thanks,
MA

CR LF on Linux? That doesn't really make sense.
Is it creating a text or binary type transfer?

I have files traveling multiple OS. Eventually need to transfer from UNIX to LINUX and replace CRLF to LF.

1. Why on mq-explorer I do not see -dle LF?
2. What do I need to put on create-transfer?

3. I have 2 exits SourceTransferStartExit and SourceTransferEndExit
with DB calls open+close connection on each. Is this Agent transfer is 1 single transaction or 2? Do I need to open+close on each exit , open at Start and close at End?

MA

Why? Linux is just another Unix and has the same end of line contentions.

CR LF means "Carriage Return, Line Feed" - it's a DOS/Windows thing.

In the olden days, some devices required a Carriage Return, and some devices required a Line Feed to get a new line, so Microsoft decided to just make a new-line have both characters, so that they would output correctly on all devices.

This looks to me much like a transformation from something like a UTF-8 file to a file with CCSID 819... Note that even on Unix/Linux a UTF-8 file uses CRLF...

OK. MFT text format file transfers do automatic CRLF / LF conversion based on native text file format for the OS, see https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFKSJ_9.1.0/com.ibm.mq.ref.adm.doc/text_transfers.htm
fteCreateTransfer -t text -dle LF can be used to override this behavior.
Is it not working for you?
