How to handle additional files.

Hi,
In PI we can pick up additional files in the Sender File Adapter.
My scenario would require to pick up invoice1.txt and and invoice1.jpg (the .jpg is the additional file)
I need to get FCC for .txt file, map it, and send it out to R3 with a proxy.
The additional file should go to a share (also on the R3, and then be accessible via a link)
Is this possible?
What configuration is needed to separate the .txt from the .jpg? Would it require BPM?
Any useful pointers/documents on the subject would be appreciated
kr
Robert

Hi,
I know how to configure the sender file adapter to pick up the additional file.
What i am looking for is how to handle it inside the integration engine, because i need to split the message from the additional file.
As mentioned above i need to send the .txt file via proxy to R3 and the .jpg file as is to R3, but it needs to go a share on the R3 directory.
file.txt + file.jpg --> Sender File Adapter --> PI / --> Proxy --> records form the file.txt
\ --> Receiver File Adapter --> .jpg
Thx
Robert

How to handle empty file using sftp adapter

Hi,
Please explain me how to handle empty files in sftp adapter.
Thanks,
Enivass

Hi Enivaas,
I don't have the seeburger sftp adapter at hand at the moment, but asfar as I remember, this does not specifically have an empty-file handling option like the standard ftp adapter.
So to stop emtyp files from being written, guess would need to handle this at the mapping level. For example, check for target creation criteria in the header node in mapping. If the creation criteria is not met, you can throw an error in mapping.
You may also incorporate this condition in your Receiver determination. In this case, if the condition is not satisfied, no receiver is determined in PI.

How to Handle Empty Files

Hi Experts,
I am doing File to File Scenario.
If my Sender systems file is Empty , that means there is no Records in the File .
How to Handle Empty Files ??????????
I want to know For both Sender and As wel as Receiver Adapters
Please Let me know..
Regards
Khanna

See if u are having a sender file adapter and the file is empty u can tell the if it has to 'Process the empty file' or 'Skip the empty file processing'.
Similarly if you have a message to going to your Receiver file adapter and the message is empty then you can decide still if you want to create a 'File with empty records' or skip creating the same.

How to handle Big FIles in SAP PI Sender file adapter

Hi all ,
I have developed a interface , where it is File to Proxy, it is fine when i do with small and normal files
The structure contain one Header unbounded detail and one Trailer, how to handle when the file size is more than 40 MB
Thanking you
Sridhar

Hi Sridhar Gautham,
We can set a limit on the request body message length that can be accepted by the HTTP Provider Service on the Java dispatcher. The system controls this limit by inspecting the Content-Length header of the request or monitoring the chunked request body (in case chunked encoding is applied to the message). If the value of the Content-Length header exceeds the maximum request body length, then the HTTP Provider Service will reject the request with a 413 u201CRequest Entity Too Largeu201D error response. You can limit the length of the request body using the tting MaxRequestContentLength property of the HTTP Provider Service running on the Java dispatcher. By default, the maximum permitted value is 131072 KB (or 128MB).You can configure the MaxRequestContentLength property using the Visual Administrator tool. Proceed as follows:
       1.      Go to the Properties tab of the HTTP Provider Service running on the dispatcher.
       2.      Choose MaxRequestContentLength property and enter a value in the Value field. The length is specified in KB.
       3.      Choose Update to add it to the list of properties.
       4.      To apply these changes, choose (Save Properties).
The value of the parameter MaxRequestContentLength has to be set to a high value.
The Visual administartor tool may be accessed using this link

In short ICM parameters to reset values for this case are
icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB
icm/server_port_ TIMEOUT
rdisp/max_wprun_time
zttp/max_memreq_MB
Please look into this thread to know more about ICM parameters

Second solution is that you must split the source file, so that each file is less than 5MB in size, then PI would not cause problem for file size between 1MB-5MB. you can insert header and trailer for individual smaller file obtained after split. All this can be done using scripts or conventional programing provided individual records within file are independent of each other. Finally you have to rename each new file created and put them in PI folder in sequential manner. All this can be achieved by simple shell script/batch file, a C code or java code. If you are going for a C or Java code you need a script to call them from PI communication channel parameter "run operating system command before message processing".

How to insert additional files on mobile apps

If i already finished my application/game then i want to add new content such as themes, images, music, etc. is this method posible?
or if there another way to add some additional content to my apps/games please tell me. my application/game using AIR.
by the way, i wonder how DLC or other the same system working, is that files added to our directory then update (something like) the xml file?

I too wonder how In-App Purchases work, are you just setting some boolean to true when the user buys additional items and this allows them to use it or are you downloading additional files that the app can now reference? Please explain someone.

Time Machine - how it handles 'temporary' files

I'm wondering how Time Machine handles 'temporary' files. By 'temporary' I mean the following. Supposing that I want to make some legitimate copies of some DVDs that I have made. I load up DVD1 and make a copy. I load up DVD2 and make a copy. I then delete DVD1 and DVD2 from my iMac as being no longer required. Now suppose Time Machine backed up before I did the delete. I think that I am right in saying that Time Machine will faithfully backup DVD1 and DVD2. After all, that is what it is supposed to do. But when I delete DVD1 and DVD2 from my iMac, Time Machine will not delete DVD1 and DVD2 from its' backup archive (again, because that is what it is supposed to do).
So if I continue to make copies of DVDs..say 50 different ones...then that means that, my Time Machine backup will fill up with 50 x 4.7Gb (ie over 200Gb) of stuff that I don't want.
Please understand that I don't have an issue with TM. Just want to understand the underlying mechanics a bit more. If my premise is correct then I guess the easiest option is to temporarily inhibit TM from doing its' backup while I am going through the load/copy/delete process. Only must remember to turn TM back on afterwards.
Thanks

no, this will not be this bad. TM constantly thins its backups. it keeps hourly backups for 24 hours and then deletes all but one of them. it keeps daily backups for 30 days and then deletes all but one for every week.
so if you had copies of some DVDs on your drive for a very short time they will likely be gone from TM backups by tomorrow.
if you still think some might be kept too long exclude the folder where you create them from TM backups. that's done by adding it to the TM exclusion list in TM system preferences->options.

Regarding ssis - how to handle new files in for each file enumerator

Hi,
I have one folder with 5 file text files by using for each file enumerator we store the files in to one folder but suddenly tomorrow one file add to that folder how to
store the file into same destination?

Inside foreach loop add a script task to check if file exists in destination folder. if exists set a boolean flag variable to True. Then link it to file system task you've using a conditional precedence constraint (Expression And Constraint). Set constraint
as OnSuccess and expression as below
@FlagVariable == False

How to handle migrating files to a new drive and Time Machine

I have recently moved to an SSD in my Mac Pro. As such, I am going from a 2TB main drive to 256GB. This is no problem, as the majority of my 700GB of files are old work and don't need to live on the speed of the SSD. My plan is to leave them on the 2TB, which will no longer be the boot drive. However, what will become of my Time Machine backups? If I leave the HDD directory structure the same, I presume it will keep the backups of my files. However, this means everything that I moved over to my SSD won't have any backup history. In addition, if I rename the HDD, or restruct it, then I will lose everything.

How to handle flat file with variable delimiters in the file sender adapter

Hi friends,
I have some flat files in the ftp server and hope to poll them into XI, but before processing in XI, I hope to do some content conversion in the file sender adapter, according to the general solution, I just need to specify the field names, field seperator, end seperator, etc. But the questions is:
The fileds in the test data may have different amount of delimiters (,), for example:
ORD01,,,Z4XS,6100001746,,,,,2,1
OBJ01,,,,,,,,,,4,3
Some fileds only have 1 ',' as the delimiter, but some of them have multiple ','.
How can I handle it in the content conversion?

Bean
