Issue/Introduction

Error Message :
Cannot open file XXXXXXXXXX. Error: errno 2, No such file or directory" (U0063018)
U00063016 FT '1350077': The file 'XXXXXX' does not exist.

On FileTransfer, if destination is a HOSTG where mode=ALL, and you check "Erase source file", only one transfer succeeds. The rest fail with either: 

On Unix: Cannot open file XXXXXXXXXX. Error: errno 2, No such file or directory" (U0063018) 
On Windows: U00063016 FT '1350077': The file 'C:\temp\move\del.txt' does not exist.

Cause

Cause type:
By design
