- File Transfer with FT-BS2000

If the FT mask is invoked as a result of an ONXFT Variable Action, or an FT Action Code, then the 'Filename to be transferred', 'Filename in Target-System' and 'Password for remote File' fields will not be displayed, except if the data object to be transferred is a PLAM library element. In this case, the 'Libname in Target System' and 'Password for Remote File' fields will be displayed on the screen. The name of the source library will be the predefined value. If this default value is not amended, then the library elements will be transferred to a PLAM library on the target system with the same name.

The 'Password for Remote File' and 'Remote User-ID Password' fields will be blanked out in the FT mask for data security reasons.

If any values are entered into the FT mask, these will henceforth be used as the default values.

If CFS is run in batch mode, the FT mask cannot be used. The FT parameters must be entered as positional parameters to the FT command, or when defining the Variable Action. The sequence of the positional parameters is the same as that used in the FT mask.
