Number of retries

Determines the number of connection attempts between 0-99 after a connection failure to an FTP server (Default: 5).

When the remote FTP server is running on an MVS system, this parameter has no effect.

Connection timeout

Determines the number of seconds the MFT client attempts to establish a connection to an FTP server before a timeout (Default: 30)

Time between retries

Determines the number of seconds between each connection attempt to an FTP server (Default: 6)

PGP temporary directory

Determines the temporary location where PGP files are stored (Default: <Control-M/Agent_Home_Dir>\cm\AFT\pgp_tmp.)

The users that are defined in the connection profile in the host where the Local CM checkbox is selected, must have read and write permissions in the PGP temporary directory.

SSL Debug trace

Determines whether the Control-M for MFT SSL diagnostics must run.

NOTE: To view SSL trace information in the log, add the following flag to the Java command in the ctmaftcontainer script:

-Djavax.net.debug=ssl:[flag]

Example:

-Djavax.net.debug=ssl

-Djavax.net.debug=ssl:record

-Djavax.net.debug=ssl:handshake:data

Use PAM password authentication

Authenticates the local host with PAM based authentication (Solaris, HP-UX, and Linux computers only)

Web Proxy

Determines whether to transfer files through a Web Proxy server

Proxy Host

Defines the hostname of the proxy server

Proxy Port

Defines the port number of the proxy server

Proxy User

Defines the username of the proxy server

Proxy Password

Defines the user's password of the proxy server

Interval between file searches

Determines the range in seconds (1-9999) between successive attempts to detect the existence of a file and the range between attempts to monitor the size of a file after it is detected (Default: 30)

Number of iterations while size is static

Determines the numbers of attempts (1-999) to monitor the file size when it is static after it has reached its minimum detected size (Default: 3)

Checks that the file is not in use

Checks if the file is used by another process or application on a local host. If it is, then the watch action fails.

You must have the fuser utility on your computer and it must exist in the root user path, otherwise this check will not function properly (UNIX only).

Interval between retries

Determines the number of seconds (1-9999) to wait before Control-M for MFT attempts to perform a post action on the source or destination file after a successful transfer, as described in Advanced general parameters (Default: 5).

Number of retries

Determines the number of retries (0-999) Control-M for MFT attempts to perform the post action on the source or destination file after a successful transfer, as described in Advanced general parameters (Default: 3).
