Re: FTP to fast

I don't know if your developers would be interested but if you go to
https://www.think400.dk/downloads.htm you will find a utility call FTPOBJ
that uses Scott's FTPAPI to FTP objects. Might give you a heads up on using
Scott's utility. First rate.

Subject: FTP to fast

Hello:
This is a first. We are working with a customer on an application that
we create files on IBM i and transfer to a mircrosoft server using FTP.
We've already asked and repeatedly been told FTP is the only way we can
send the files.
The job stopped working in December and it wasn't noticed until sometime
later the application was not completing. After researching and testing
and troubleshooting on the IBM i and checking out the script............to
no avail. Oddly the script ran fine when we ran it manually but we could
not get it to work through a submitted job scheduled to run late at night.
Everything was exactly the same for the script used to FTP when we did it
manually and when the job ran as a scheduled job.
We finally were able to get some help on the microsoft server side and the
following was determined. Working with the networking and server team to
validate the following conclusions were reached.
They believe the reason the manual run works is because it was run slow.
The failure is that the server is placed into passive mode by IBM i. And
not enough is granted to get it out of PASV mode. They were able to get
the logs from a recent run from the FTP Server. It was competing with a
very large amount of other FTP traffic. They said they cannot stress this
enough we need to slow it down. Based on the traffic from the FTP Logs and
the Network capture. The IBM i is jamming the data through. They asked
the script be changed to slow it down to fix the problem.
Following is the script used for the job xx-de-ffm-FTPSXXXX xxxxxxxx
namefmt 1

lcd ..

lcd /Bxxxxxxx

cd /DataxxxxImport/PURCH_DlvTerm

put DlvTerm_031.txt

cd ..

cd /DataxxxxImport/PURCH_GoodsReceipt

mput GoodsReceipt_031*

cd ..

cd /DataxxxxImport/PURCH_Invoices

mput Invoices_031*

cd /DataxxxxImport/PURCH_Item

cd ..

cd /DataxxxxImport/PURCH_SettlementDisc

put SettlementDisc_031.txt

cd ..

cd \DataxxxxImport\PURCH_Supplier

put Supplier_031.txt

quit



Here is the last log from when it ran in batch successfully

This is in the last GOOD FTP Log:



look at next rcd~ > put DlvTerm_031.txt

--now check for response

look at next rcd~ 227 Entering Passive Mode
(10,101,1,10,0,100).

look at next rcd~ 150 File status okay; about to open data
connection.

look at next rcd~ 226 Closing data connection. Transferred
252 bytes in 1 seconds. 0KB/second.


This is a first but does anyone have ideas how to so to speak slow the job
down. We've been told FTP is the only option.
