Hi Experts ,

we are receiveing a file in SAP in folder of size 3.5 gb and more we need to zip any way ,In PI we have the option like modules but not we trying to do it in OS level commands to zip, as we tried with SAPCAR as it has limitations not suitable for 3.5 gb files so we need any other options how to zip atomatically ,any suggestions please welcome...

Hi Hareesh gampa,

Can i do this in sender side CC of file adapter?

Yes. You can find the same under "Processing tab" of your sender File Channel

Refer to Define Operating System Commands segment under help documentation.

Configuring the Sender File Adapter - Advanced Adapter Engine - SAP Library

However i'm not sure how efficient it would be to zip such a large file (>3 GB).

May be it would be good to schedule a job which can make a call to script in order to zip the file.

Hi Murali,

If you do anything aside from the OS command that would require PI to read the contents of the file to perform the zipping action (the full 3.5GB).  Aside from using the OS command in the channel you can use the class CL_ABAP_ZIP on the SAP system in question to zip the contents.

Hi Raghu,

As we know the Chunk mode will split and do process ,We do not want to split we need to zip the file of 3.5 gb as it is and to process.

Hi Experts,

We tried to test with SAPCAR which will be the working fine and zipping the file of 3.5gb size file in less then 2 min.So we are prefering this option.Could you please any advice about is it required any patch update for sap to run the zip process automatically ...?

Check this wiki on how to achieve the same with SAPCAR

As i mentioned you should be able to execute OS command from sender file channel.

Hi Experts,

Thanks for your reply,

One more question..

1) Can we able to transport the SAPCAR objects from dev,QAand prod.?

2) Or we need to patch it to base package?

[former_member184720]

I don't think SAPCAR utility is transportable.

AFAIK - we usually download it from SMP and install.

You can execute the OS command from file channel
