ftstran - executes transmission

Format

ftstran transmission-card-name[/L file-name][/N file-name][/E file-name][/M [B|T]][/H host-name][transmission-information-option transmission-option-parameter]

Function

The ftstran command executes file transmission based on the information in a specified transmission card (Select Card method of file transmission) or by modifying information in a specified transmission card (Enter Information method of file transmission).

Arguments

transmission-card-name ((1 to 20-byte character string))

Specifies the name of a transmission card that has been registered using Transmission Regist. & Exe..

/L file-name ((1 to 259-byte character string))

Specifies the name of the file to which the following log information is output when the ftstran command terminates:

Command termination time, return value, message, transmission card name, local file name, remote file name

If this option is omitted, no log information is output.

If you specify a relative path for the file name, the command assumes the directory relative to the command execution directory.

If the size of the file exceeds 1 megabyte, file-name is renamed as file-name_old. If file-name_old already exists, the existing file is deleted before file-name is renamed as file-name_old.

The number of logs that can be stored in the file is as follows:

1 MB/(length of transmission card name + length of local file name + length of remote file name + 122) + 1

/N file-name ((1 to 259-byte character string))

Specifies the name of the file to which the results are output when the transmission terminates normally. If this option is omitted, transmission results are not output when the transmission terminates normally.

If you specify a relative path for the file name, the command assumes the directory relative to the command execution directory.

/E file-name ((1 to 259-byte character string))

Specifies the name of the file to which the results are output when the transmission terminates abnormally. If this option is omitted, transmission results are not output when the transmission terminates abnormally.

If you specify a relative path for the file name, the command assumes the directory relative to the command execution directory.

/M [B|T]

Specifies the output format.

• B: Binary format (data consisting of consecutive FTS_FTP_API_DATA_EX and FTS_FTP_API_RETDATA_EX structures)
• T: Text format

/H host-name ((1 to 256-byte character string))

Specifies the FTP client's IP address (physical host or logical host).

If you have enabled specification of the FTP client's local IP address, the value specified in this option becomes the FTP client's local IP address. If you omit this option, the address of the FTP client's physical host is assumed.

If you have disabled specification of the FTP client's local IP address, the address that is assigned automatically by the OS becomes the FTP client's local IP address.

For details about how to enable specification of the FTP client's local IP address, see 3.11 Using JP1/FTP in a multiple IP address environment.

transmission-information-option transmission-option-parameter

Specifies desired options in order to modify some of the transmission information on the specified transmission card (Enter Information method of file transmission). For details about the transmission information options, see ftsregc - registers, changes, deletes, and displays transmission information in this chapter. For details about the transmission option parameters for the transmission information options, see 3.4.1 Registering transmission information onto a transmission card.
