IT02681: FTE NODE FAILS TO PROCESS RECORDS FOR FILES OVER 2GB

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The following error is thrown when the FTE Input Node receives
  a transfer notification for a file over 2Gb in size:
  
  BIP4367E: The method ''beforePropagate'' in Java node ''FTE
  Input'' has thrown the following exception:
  'java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string:
  "4718843410"'.
  
  The method ''beforePropagate'' of the Java node has thrown an
  exception. Examine previous error messages for details of the
  cause of the problem.
  
  This error is generated by the Java node API. It can occur in
  a Java Compute node or a Java user-defined node. If the node is
  a user-defined node, contact the node provider for further
  details.

  method name: ''forInputString'', file:
  ''NumberFormatException.java'', line: '65'
  The message contains that data associated with a Java exception.
  No user action required.
  
  As long as each individual record is below either
  QSI_FILENODES_MAXIMUM_RECORD_LENGTH or 2Gb (whichever is
  smaller) the node should be able to process the file.
  
  There is hard limit of 2Gb preventing an entire file from being
  parsed as a single record when the file is over 2Gb, this APAR
  does not remove this restriction.

Problem conclusion

• The error no longer occurs when processing notification messages
  for files over 2Gb in size.
  
  There is a hard limit of 2Gb preventing an entire file from
  being parsed as a single record when the file is over 2Gb. This
  APAR does not remove this restriction.
