RE: Drag and Drop File to IFS fails

Tried FTP and the name is too long? Where does that limitation come
from and how do I get around it? Rename, FTP to IFS, change name back??

put XAR9_ServerInstall_SBCS_PTF01000_SH15631_Vol1_of_1.iso

Specified object name too long: XAR9_ServerI.


Hurry, before my FTP times out :-)

Yesterday I was able to drag the file from my PC to a Windows Network
drive, although it did take 20 minutes or so due to an IO bottleneck on
our SAN. I then tried to drag it to the IFS and it failed again.

I'll try FTP.

Thanks,

Bryan

... None of the drag and drop products work for something that big.

FTP will work if you get the combination correct.

I'm trying to drag and drop an INFOR XA 3.5 GB .ISO file from the C:
drive on my PC to the IFS and it keeps failing in iNav with the message:

"Operation failed. Verify that your connection is working and that you
have proper authority for the operation."

I've successfully dropped six other ISO files (the largest being 1.2 GB)
for the same release into the same directory (INSTALLimages). It appears
that I have the proper authority to the file so I'm wondering if there's
some size limit somewhere in iNav that's causing the transfer to fail.
Anyone have a suggestion?

I'd FTP the file, but the INFOR instructions have a step

lcd c:\

which isn't recognized by FTP.

Thanks in advance.
