PREP_PROCESS_FILE function requires “FileTransfer: Start without User ID” privilege if not using UC_LOGIN

Products

• CA Automic Workload Automation - Automation Engine

Issue/Introduction

Error Message :
N/A

The "UC_LOGIN=" value is listed as an optional parameter for the PREP_PROCESS_FILE script function.  

Access to the file to be read and transferred from the host to the Automation Engine (AE) is made with the login data defined in the Login object.

However, users also require the privilege "File Transfer: Start without User ID" if UC_LOGIN is not used.

The AE documentation does not mention that.
