Job Management Partner 1/File Transmission Server/FTP Description, Reference and Operator's Guide

1.1 Features

JP1/FTP is a file transmission program that is provided with an Operations-Manager function. It uses the FTP procedure, a standard protocol for file transmission. Compared with the OS's standard FTP functions, JP1/FTP provides functions that are especially useful when files are transmitted by standard applications.

n Automation of file transmission jobs

The job start function enables you to automate processing startup when file transmission is completed.

The API function enables you to send files to and receive files from user applications.

You can automate processing such as receiving data from a base server on a regular schedule throughout the day and then summing up the data at the end of the day.

n Management of execution status

By using the display and notification of file transmission status, you can take actions such as error handling.

You can manage the transmission status by collecting and displaying log information during file transmission.

n Scheduling transmissions

When linked to JP1/AJS3, JP1/FTP enables you to easily perform scheduled transmission for standard applications. Additionally, JP1/FTP's automated job startup enables you to automate job execution when file transmission is finished.

n Centralized monitoring by JP1/IM

By using JP1/IM, you can achieve centralized monitoring of services starting and stopping and the termination status of transmissions (normal, warning, abnormal).

n Operations-Manager function (not applicable to the IPF version)

You can perform processing on multiple JP1/FTP hosts that are linked in a network, such as by displaying their file transmission histories and distributing and setting up various definition information.
