Simple Flow:

1) 2) 3) 4)
FileInput: checks C:\wste_sample\input for *.in and finds test.in FileInput: stores file info to LocalEnvironment (with test as a wildcard) FileInput: creates C:\wste_sample\input\mqsibackout (in case of errors) FileInput: sends output message through the out terminal (removes test.in)
1) Trace1: writes trace1.out to C:\wste_sample\trace 2) Trace1: sends output message through the out terminal 1) FileOutput: writes temp messages to C:\wste_sample\output\mqsitransit 2) FileOutput: transfers *.out to C:\wste_sample\output (pulling from wildcard) 3) FileOutput: sends output message through the out terminal

FTP Possibilities:
Through W MB 6.1.0.3, both file nodes contain an FTP tab with
a checkbox to set whether FTP settings should be used.
If set, the FTP settings are used to transfer files to the remote
server, while all processing is done on local copies of the files.

FTP Possibilities:
The Server directory points to the directory on the FTP server
you wish to scan for your input files. It should be formatted for the file system standards of the FTP Server, not the local machine. If unset, the default is to use the servers default login directory.
FileOutput uses Retain local file after transfer to allow the user
to keep a copy of the output file locally, if needed.

FTP Possibilities:
W hen specifying FTP settings, you can configure them on
the tab, or through a configurable service:
mqsicreateconfigurableservice myBrokerName -c FtpServer -o myServiceName -n <propertyName> -v <value>

W hen a flow starting from a file fails, retry settings dictate the
FileInput Nodes response:
failure: message moves to failure tab (or backed out) short retry: immediate retry(s) of the message through the flow short and long retry: multiple sets of short retry attempts
If a file fails, even after retry, the file can either be backed out to
a subdirectory (mqsibackout), or deleted.
