In order to transfer
SAVF files within the AE Agents, the process must create the lib/file first before the file can be sent.
For example, before attempting the file transfer the
SAVF object can be created on the target system using:
CRTLIB LIB(DESTLIB)
CRTSAVF SAVF(DESTLIB/DEST.SAVF)
This can be completely automated by Automic by creating an action/Workflow to cover this in all aspects and this Workflow can be reused whenever needed.
If this is done before proceeding to the file transfer, the object and its content will be correctly transferred.
Other OS's such as
MVS,
OS390, and
BS2000 behave the same way as the
AS400, and for all of them, the solution is to create an action/Workflow. If a new file type is needed create a Workflow for it.
An enhancement to the product to change this behavior would require the submission of a product enhancement.
