Troubleshooting scenario 3: ARSLOAD not loading data from HFS directory specified with -d parameter

Symptom

You attempted to use ARSLOAD to load from an HFS directory rather than from spool. I specified the following for my ARSLOAD PARM statement:

PARM=('-h ARCHIVE -C A -d /ars/upload')

However, ARSLOAD does not load the files from your /ars/upload directory.

Possible causes

The -d and -C parameters are mutually exclusive. If the -C parameter is specified, ARSLOAD will load from spool and will not monitor the directory specified by the -d parameter.

Action

Remove the -C A from the PARM statement. The PARM statement should instead look like this:

PARM=('-h ARCHIVE -d /ars/upload')
