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

# Receiving a File to a File

By typing 4A (or 4.A) on the command line in the Platform Server primary window, you can receive a file from a remote system to a file.

After you type 4A (or 4.A) on the command line, the "Receive to file" panel is displayed. The panel contains all the parameters you can configure to set up a transfer to receive a file from a remote system. You can press the F8 and F7 keys to go to the next and previous pages of the "Receive to file" panel.

In the "Receive to file" panel, some of the parameters have been filled in with their default values. You can modify these parameter values at any time by typing values over the default values.

The values displayed on initialization of the "Receive to file" panel are generally based on the last values entered in the entry fields; therefore, you do not have to retype values that do not change each time.

The fields that are most commonly changed per transfer are placed at the top of the panel so that you can perform less scrolling up and down operations after the initial settings are entered.

The parameters in the "Receive to file" panel are the same as those in the "Send to file" panel. See Send Request Parameters for details of the parameters.

When you fill in all the necessary parameter values you want to use, press Enter. The Confirmation panel is displayed for you to set what the Platform Server does next. See Sending a File to a File for more details about the Confirmation panel.
