Receiving a File 67
Because the file attributes match, the block mode transfer occurs.
CDSND Examples-Setting Actual Blocksize
In the fourth example, the following events occur:
the remote node sets the destination file blocksize to 3200, the actual blocksize of the destination file.
Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS calculates the simulated blocksize at 3200.
The blocksizes are identical, so block mode transfer occurs.
CDSND and CDRCV Example
In the fifth example, Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS calculates the simulated blocksize at 32720 since the
copy is between two Sterling Connect:Direct for i5/OS nodes.
Using the CDRCV Screens
Use the Sterling Connect:Direct Receive File (CDRCV) screens to initiate a Sterling Connect:Direct session
and receive a file from a remote node. CDRCV uses certain special function keys as follows:
F24 more keys gives you access to additional function keys used in CDRCV.
F5 refresh which clears any field entries you have made.
F9 which gives you access to all parameters.
F11 which displays key words.
F14 which displays command strings.
F15 which displays any error messages pending.
F16 which marks the command complete.
