Issue/Introduction

We are testing the file transfer via AIX agents (12.3.6 HF 2) and we recognized that the temp filename during transferring begins with an A but in the documentation (https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/AA/12.3/DOCU/12.3/Automic%20Automation%20Guides/help.htm#AWA/Admin/inifiles/admin_ini_agent_unix.htm?TocPath=Reference%257CConfiguration%2520(INI)%2520Files%257CAgents%257C_____11)  it should be a T.

Which letter is the correct one?

 

An issue was found where the temp file name of a file during a JOBF would not start with a 'T' as it is described in the documentation:

https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/AA/12.3/DOCU/12.3/Automic%20Automation%20Guides/help.htm#AWA/Admin/inifiles/admin_ini_agent_unix.htm

 

Steps to reproduce

* make sure the receiving Unix Agent has set 'ft_temp_file=yes'

* perform a file transfer to that Unix Agent

* monitor the target folder

==> find a temp file named according the result of 'RUNNR2ALPHA(<jobf_runid>)' but the 'T' missing

 

Environment

Release : 12.3

Component : AUTOMATION ENGINE

Cause
