Issue/Introduction

The following messages are in the GatewayControlServer.log when a file is not processed once in the Directory Watcher:

[INFO ][com.ca.xcom.gateway.autoFileInsertion.PolicyWatcher] Scheduling the upload of file "filename" to the Policy "policy name"
[INFO ][com.ca.xcom.gateway.daoservice.impl.GatewayTransferFileServiceImpl] Session Id 'Mzg5N2M2YTM6MTc1YzIyNXC3ZGE6LTdmZjEtMjIxMDcxMFhDT01OQw==' is uploading the file '"filename"' to Policy '"policy name"'.

Environment

Release : 12.0

Component : CA XCOM DATA TRANSPORT GATEWAY FOR WINDOWS

Cause

In this case, it could be that the SSH is not closing the handle and the Directory Watcher is picking up the file before it leaves the handle.

Resolution

Review and adjust the Watcher Folder Interval timer configuration for the policy's Directory Watcher:

1. Logon to the Gateway UI
2. Click on the Administration tab and Manage Policies tab
3. Select the policy in question and Edit
4. Select Directory Watcher Info and modify the timer interval in the Timer Configuration section of the screen. A timeout value of 30 minutes was needed.
