The following table lists the Control-M for MFT configuration parameters.
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
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. |
Debug Level |
Determines the debug level of Control-M MFT. NOTE: If the debug level of the Control-M/Agent is higher than Control-M MFT, then the debug level of Control-M MFT is based on the Control-M/Agent (Default: 0). |
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 NOTE: Supports FTP, FTPS, SFTP, and S3. |
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 lsof utility on your computer and it must exist in the root user path, and the Control-M/Agent must run as root user. Otherwise this check does 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). |
