Is FCC required in File to File scenario without mapping

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a scenario where XI is picking up a csv file from a BW server and just pushing the file to some other location as it is .

i.e csv file will be pushed as it is to another location

So in this case is FCC required ? . ie do i need to convert the csv file in to XML and then back to csv , or i can just use a dummy interface to pass the csv file through the XI pipeline

Thanks & Regards,

You can execute a Unix script running in the XI server from the File communication channel. Ie. if you want to do something which was not part of XI adapter configuation , then you can make use of external unix script and you can execute those from the XI.

For this, write a unix script and place in the XI OS level provided that path is accessible from PI Channel.

E.g

So u can use this in either Sender Channel to modify the data before it reaches into the Integration Server or in Receiver channel it is generally used to transfer the files into different location via Secure FTP

Hi,

You can do it without FCC.

But i didn't understand that the requirement of using XI in between. If you just want to send the csv file from XI to push it to some location in BW server in some folder and from there it got pushed to BW, whats the need? Just use some Shell scripting and its done.

You can use a dummy interface and avoid the FCC.
