Error description
This new function in v7.0.4.3 allows the creation of messages of up to 100MB in size when transferring to a single message in a file-to-message transfer. Without this new function the maximum size of a single message on a queue in a file-to-message transfer is 33MB.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users wishing to put large files to a queue using file-to-message functionality. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM SUMMARY: Due to the design of WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition, it was not possible to put a single file to a single message when that file was larger than 33MB.
Problem conclusion
You can now submit a large one file to one message transfer, up to a file size of 100 MB. To reduce memory usage for large one file to one message transfers, you are recommended to set the -qs parameter on the fteCreateTransfer command equal to the size of message being written. If you have a file larger than 100 MB, and you also specify the -qs parameter on the fteCreateTransfer command, the file is split into multiple messages.In the case of recovery of binary one file to message transfers, the transfer restarts from the point that the last checkpoint was written. In the case of recovery of text transfers, the transfer restarts from the beginning of the file, which might result in an incomplete group of messages on the destination queue. When the failed text transfer is restarted, a completely new group of messages is written. The new function for 7.0.4.3 or 7.5.0.2 depending on release version must be enabled to take advantage of this new function. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Platform v7.0 -------- -------------------- Multiplatforms 7.0.4.3 Platform v7.5 -------- -------------------- Multiplatforms 7.5.0.2 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from 'WebSphere MQ Recommended Fixes' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006037 If the maintenance level is not yet available information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere MQ Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006309 ---------------------------------------------------------------
