Each newly transferred file is processed by FTO according to special transfer, allocation, scheduling and post-processing parameters. These parameters are located in the Control‑D FTOPARM library.
Members of the Control‑D FTOPARM library are selected according to matching GROUP_IDs. Special member $$FTDFLT in the Control‑D FTOPARM library specifies the default parameters.
Members in the Control‑D FTOPARM library are formatted as follows:
|
|

|
|
Mask characters (wildcards) can be specified for ++++REPORT_ID.
PARAMETERn can be defined according to the parameters described in the following table.
Table 155 Transfer Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
TYPE |
The type of transfer that must occur. If parameter TYPE is not specified, its value is taken from the header provided by SesAgent. Valid values are:
|
TRANSTB |
Name of the translation table from ASCII to EBCDIC.
|
LINESEP |
Line separator.
|
PAGESEP |
Page separator. IOA Exit 39 can be used to force page break according to non-standard control characters during writing to CDAM. For descriptions of all exits, see Chapter 9, "Exits."
|
OUT |
Output target, where the transferred files reside.
|
FIRSTLINE |
Indication of whether a new first line must be inserted before the beginning of the report, and if so, what the contents off the new first line must be. AutoEdit variables %GROUP%, %REPORT%, %REPORTX%, %DATE%, %TIME%, %JOBNAME%, and/or %JOBID% can be specified in this parameter.
|
REPENTRY |
The REPENTRY parameters requests the creation of new USER and SYSDATA records for the entire dataset stored in a CDAM without decollation. This parameter can be specified only if CDAM is specified in the OUT parameter. The SYSDATA and USER records are created as defined in the REPENTRY parameter’s subparameters. Additional relevant information is also obtained from CDAM and is inserted into the SYSDATA record. Values for REPENTRY subparameters must be specified between single quotes. AutoEdit variables %GROUP%, %REPORT%, %REPORTX%, %DATE%, %TIME%, %JOBNAME%, and/or %JOBID% can be specified in these subparameters. The REPENTRY subparameters are:
|
STAT |
The STAT parameter determines whether Control‑D File Transfer option issues messages to the IOA Log every time file transfer starts and terminates. This parameter can only be defined in member $$FTDFLT, the defaults member.
|
SMF |
Number of SMF records that can be created upon termination of each file transfer. Control‑D Exit 27 can be used to create SMF records. |
DESC |
Can be used in Control‑D user exit 27. Up to 75 chars in length. |
Table 156 Post-processing Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
DECMIS |
Decollation scheduling parameters. This parameter has the following format: date libname [missionname catname] [FORCE] For more information, see Scheduling Missions Through a New Day Procedure. If the current FTO session stores the transferred file in CDAM (OUT=CDAM), the decollation mission ordered according to the DECMIS parameter must contain parameter DSN=%%CDAM specified on the second line of the ON DSN / ON TRNDSN statement in the Decollation mission definition, as follows:
The variable %%CDAM will be resolved by the CDAM name created by FTO in the current session, with asterisk instead of the two last '00' characters in CDAM name, as follows:
|
WTO |
Text of message.
|
COND |
Prerequisite condition to add to or delete from the IOA Conditions file. The condition is specified in the format: action COND condition condition-date For more information, see the IOA Utilities chapter in the INCONTROL for z/OS Utilities Guide. AutoEdit variables %GROUP%, %REPORT%, %REPORTX%, %DATE%, %TIME%, %JOBNAME%, and/or %JOBID% can be specified in this parameter. |
Any post-processing parameter can be specified several times. If a file is not transferred successfully, the only post-processing action that is performed is that specified parameter WTO with subparameter WHEN set to NOT OK or ALWAYS. In this case, the resulting file is deleted.
