File Transfer Messages
Overview
Overview
This appendix explains the file transfer messages generated by the
TN3270 emulation program and the TRANSnnn messages generated by
the host file transfer program. It includes the following:
Messages generated by the TN3270 emulation program during file
transfer using the menu interface
Messages generated during command-line file transfer. These
messages include some messages that are generated by the host
IND$FILE or APVUFILE program, which may also appear in the File
Transfer dialog box. Others are generated by the TN3270 emulation
program and apply only to command-line file transfer.
In addition, some host programs may indicate error conditions by writing
messages to the screen, rather than by sending TRANSnnn messages. If
the host program writes a message to the 3270 emulation screen during
file transfer (which does not necessarily indicate an error), the emulator
displays this message in the File Transfer dialog box and also logs it in
the error log file.
If your host system generates messages other than TRANSnnn (for
example INWnnnn), you can still use file transfer, but it is not fully
supported. When you use the menu interface, the host file transfer
message number and text are displayed as for TRANSnnn messages, but
you will need to refer to your host documentation for explanations of the
messages.
The TN3270 emulation program command-line file transfer does not
fully distinguish between different INWnnnn messages. INW messages
indicating a successful file transfer are replaced by the message
TRANS098, and those indicating an unsuccessful file transfer are
replaced by the message TRANS099.
