File Transfer with SINIX Systems using FT-BS2000

Files can also be transferred between BS2000 and SINIX systems using FT-BS2000.

Variable Action ONXFT:

In the parameter mask for the Variable Action ONXFT, the following could be entered, for example:

Partner-Name : mx500 BCAM name of the Sinix system
Remote User-ID : 'guest'
Remote Account-# :
Remote Password : 'siemens'
Remote-Parameter : *any
Transfer-Direction : TO

TRANSFER-DIRECTION : TO The file to be transferred will be created on the SINIX system under the /usr/guest user.

TRANSFER-DIRECTION : FROM The specified file will be transferred from the /usr/gast Id on the SINIX system.

The user can also enter the full path for the Remote User-Id, e.g. /usr2/lkz/guest.

TRANSFER-DIRECTION : TO The file names will be created on the target system such that the first 12 characters of the name of the file to be transferred will be suffixed to the path name specified in the Remote User-Id. The BS2000 file name will be converted to lowercase (Standard).

If *any is entered in lowercase in the the Remote-Parameter field, then the BS2000 file names will be transferred to the SINIX system as a lowercase name.

If *ANY is entered in uppercase in the Remote-Parameter field, then the BS2000 file name will be transferred to the SINIX system as an uppercase name.

CFS Command FT:

Filename to be transferred : cfs.d.table
Filename in Target-System : '/usr/lkz/guest/table'
Partner-Name : mx500 BCAM name of the Sinix system
Remote User-ID : 'lkz'
Remote Account-# :
Remote Password : 'siemens'
Remote-Parameter : *any
Transfer-Direction : TO

In the FT command, the name of the SINIX file to be created or fetched can be specified as part of the full path name (e.g. '/usr/lkz/guest/table'). The file name will be passed to the SINIX system without modification. The file to be transferred can be sent to any user, or from any user.

The case of *ANY in the REMOTE PARAMETER field should be noted:

*any   lower case letters in the file name are passed to the SINIX system as such.

*ANY   lower case letters in the file name are transmitted to the SINIX system as upper case letters.

A user must be entered in the REMOTE USER-ID field who has creation rights for the file in the SINIX system (TRANSFER-DIRECTION : TO), or a user who has read rights for the file (TRANSFER-DIRECTION : FROM).

The Remote User-ID and Remote User-ID Password entries must be enclosed in quotes, and will be passed to the SINIX system exactly as entered, irrespective of the case of the *any/*ANY parameter.
