Configuring Connect:Direct File Agent
Configure Connect:Direct® File Agent using the configuration interface. The IBM® Connect:Direct File Agent Configuration Guide describes how Connect:Direct File Agent works and contains sample configuration scenarios.
Before you begin
Before you implement Connect:Direct File Agent in a production environment, use the Connect:Direct File Agent Help to set up and verify the basic operation. The Connect:Direct File Agent Help contains the same information as the Sterling Connect:Direct File Agent Configuration Guide.
Connect:Direct File Agent is designed to run unattended. After you verify Connect:Direct File Agent operation and configuration, start it by running the CDFAEXEC job. Connect:Direct File Agent begins scanning the watch directory containing the directories and partitioned datasets you specify in the configuration file. When a file arrives in a watch directory, Connect:Direct File Agent either submits the default Process to IBM Connect:Direct or performs the actions specified by the rules for the file.
