TIBCO® Managed File Transfer Platform Server for z/OS 8.1.0

# REMOTECTFILE={remote_file_name}

Default | Not Applicable
Allowable Values | Translation table names with 1 - 16 characters, `NULL`, or `NONE`
Minimum | 1
Maximum | 16
Alternate Specification | RCT

This parameter defines the remote Translation table name. The Translation table name must be defined on the remote system. You can enter a Translation table name of 1 - 16 characters. The REMOTECTFILE translation table is used when `TYPE=TEXT` transfers are defined. This parameter is ignored when `TYPE=BINARY` is specified. A value of `NULL` or `NONE` indicates that no conversion will take place.

The REMOTECTFILE parameter on the file transfer request overrides the DEFAULT_REMOTECTFILE parameter.

To use z/OS Unicode Conversion Services, the following format of this parameter is required.

`REMOTECTFILE=CC:xxxxx:yyyyy`

Where:

xxxxx defines the CCSID of the Local data - that is, z/OS data read or written to disk.

yyyyy defines the CCSID of the Remote data - that is, data sent to or received from a partner

For information on the CCSID values to use, see the IBM manual: z/OS Unicode Services User's Guide and Reference.

- For a Send Request (that is, Read), xxxxx is the Source CCSID and yyyyy is the target CCSID.
- For a Receive Request, (that is, Write), yyyyy is the Source CCSID and xxxxx is the target CCSID.

When using this parameter, set the following parameter so that the local system does NOT perform any conversion:

LOCALCTFILE=NULL
