How To split large message using File Adapter

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

Here is my scenario FTP > XI > BI.

I got 2 questions:

(1) I am getting large message around 70 MB file.

How we can split the message into multiple files 10 MB each before processing the file into XI?

(2) Is there is any way we can find out size of file which is on FTP without contacting FTP admin?

through XI before processing the file?

Thanks

Vick

HI Vick,

usually with XI you process information that has some buisness logic in it, thefor

it has a standard structure that repeats itslef.

1)Check the file provider design documents

2)locate the begin and end of each message type.

3)define in the file adapter with content conversion the structure of your single message.

4)define the parameter recordset per message as 1, this will send a single message for each line structured.

At the BI side I'll reccomand to use a server PROXY interface for

stability and reusability.

Good luck

U can write a script to split the file and use this script before the processing of file from the file adapter. Use the Operating System Command option in communication channel. Or else u will have to write an adapter module.
