Chapter 3. Operating NetView FTP V2.2.1 MVS - IBM

If you specify a value for this parameter, do not specify a byte checkpoint
interval. If TIMECR is not specified, the value for BYTECR is used.
┌─�─┐ ►►──TIMECR= ─┴─n─┴──────────────────────────────────────────────►◄ Default First Qualifier for a New Receiving File
If a server receives a file transferred from a remote system, and if no file name
was specified for the receiving file, the server creates a name for it. Use the
GID keyword to specify the character string that the server must use as the first
qualifier when creating a name for a receiving file. The value of this parameter
can be a string of up to 8 characters.
For more information about how NetView FTP creates names refer to the
NetView FTP V2 MVS User’s Guide.
►►──GID=name───────────────────────────────────────────────────►◄ Obtain Interval
Use the OBTINTVL keyword to specify the amount of time, in seconds, a server
must wait after unsuccessfully trying to obtain a request before trying again.
The value of this parameter can be any integer from 1 to 9999. The default
value is 120.
┌─12�─┐ ►►──OBTINTVL= ─┴─n───┴──────────────────────────────────────────►◄ Retry Delay Time
If a file transfer is interrupted and if the corresponding request specified that
automatic transfer restart was to be used, the local server writes the request
back to the request queue and changes its status back to waiting. This way,
the request is rescheduled later. The server also sets the request’s not-before
date and time to the current time plus the number of seconds specified for the
RETRYDELAY keyword. This forces the server (and any other servers that are
eligible to process that request) to wait at least that number of seconds before
processing that request again. As long as the new not-before date and time
has not passed, the request has the status waiting and is not dispatchable.
The value can be a number in the range 1 through 9999. The default value is
300.
┌─3��─┐ ►►──RETRYDELAY= ─┴─n───┴────────────────────────────────────────►◄ Note: The NetView FTP V2.1 MVS keyword REQDELAY is still accepted.
However, you should use the keyword RETRYDELAY for servers being newly
set up.
