Issue/Introduction

Report not Printed on the Remote Side after Successful Transfer

Environment

Release:
Component: XCAS4

Platform:
AS/400 i5/OS

Resolution

When the remote system is an AS/400, and if the parameter COPIES=000, CA XCOM Data Transport determines the number of copies from the printer device file.

If the remote system is not an AS/400, the COPIES parameter should be set to at least 001 or the report will not be printed or retained on the remote partner, even if the transfer is successful. The default value of this parameter can be changed using the command CHGSFOPT (Change Send File Options).

See Chapter 5 of the CA XCOM Data Transport for AS/400 i5/OS Getting Started manual for details on how to use the CHGSFOPT  command.
