Re: FTP - preventing status messages from appearing on screen

 
 
add:
 
OVRDBF FILE(outPUT) TOFILE(FTPSRCE) MBR(&MBRlog)
 
to your CL.
 
This will log the entries so you can review them if needed.

Subject: FTP - preventing status messages from appearing on screen
 
 
 
 
When doing a file transfer, from a CL program, using FTP with the FTP
server running on a remote system, if the job runs interactively, all the
FTP status messages appear onscreen. Is there a way to prevent that
(without having to run the job in batch) ?
For example :
 
STRTCPFTP RMTSYS(&FTPSERVER)
 
the ftp instructions are contained in member &MBRFTin source file FTPSRCE.
When the cL is run something like that is displayed for example:
 
Input read from specified override file.
Connecting to host FTPSERVER address 10.152.10.10 using port 21.
220 FTPSERVER Microsoft FTP Service (Version 3.0).
Enter login ID (username):
331 Password required for USERID.
230-Welcome to Remote NT Server
230 User USERID logged in.
Windows_NT version 4.0
Enter an FTP subcommand.
Enter an FTP subcommand.
> ASCII
> PUT QTEMP/file1 file2.csv
> CLOSE
221
Enter an FTP subcommand.
> QUIT
Press ENTER to end terminal session.
 
 
How does one prevent these status messages from appearing , i.e allow the
ftp transfer to run 'silently' and not
requiring the user to press Enter at the end of the transfer.
