AS400 - File adapter not archiving File and Member

[Former Member]

Hi Gents,

Specific problem for the archiving of file/members on the AS400 system. When the file adapter is archiving the AS400 member to an AS400 archive file it is leaving an empty file structure in the origin directory. So at the end of the day we have a lot of AS400 Files with no members.

AS400 Technical folks are looking for the FTP 'script' that is being executed on the AS400 to pick up the file and archive it.

Has anyone else encountered this AS400 problem, were you able to solve it?

Also how can I see the exact commands being executed on the AS400 from XI?

Thanks in advance and regards.

Extend the trace file to Debug in Visual Admin, and re run:

 Services

 Log Configurator

 Locations

 Choose the location (Java package) and the tracing level (severity)

(for example, com.sap.aii.adapter.file)

 Root Location > com > sap > aii > File

 Set the severity and choose Copy Severity to Subtree.

Check the log file which will give you the details.

Don't forget to switch this back afterwards.

There are also quite a few OSS Notes relating to problems with Adapter Framework and AS/400...
