File Adapter Advanced Mode - Msecs to Wait Before Modifications Check

Hi, Can anybody tell me how to set this parameter "Msecs to Wait Before Modifications Check" in PI 7.1? I don't see this parameter at all. In advance mode of PI 7.1, we just have Maximum File Size(bytes). Also when I checked the SAP note 801926 for Advanced Mode we can just set only
1. Parameter name: "clusterSyncMode"
2. Parameter name: "ftp.timeout"
Please let me know if anybody has configured this already in PI 7.1.

Hi Ravi
I think this feature is no longer supported in PI 7.1. Although it work with PI 7.0 for NFS and non FCC only.
Thanks

we are having PI Alert email configured in the system;
when we get a big files into the locations, we get an unwanted Alert emails saying Error;
when I check PI, Overall file transfer is successful,
but we have the below error in the Message Display Audit log as
"Channel CC_Cxxx: Attempt to send file 'T201_200909141702' failed because file was modified during processing. 0 bytes expected, 1202248 bytes found. Trying to resend file"
but Overall file transfer is successful;
Does anyone can explain the reason for this error; ?
Also to remove this error & unwanted Alert email (since final status is successfull), I changed the Poll Interval to 3 for all 3 above CCs; Now I dont get the above error;
Do you think there might be a sequance issue due to this change;?
(time gap between incoming files is around 1-3 secs)
quite lengthy to explain sorry;
Appreciate your help please
thanks

Hello Iver
Question 3 in the note #821267 FAQ: XI 3.0 / PI 7.0/ PI 7.1 File Adapter, explains what is happening here. This answers your first question.
The file in question was being written to by another process when the file adapter attempted to send it. Depending on the length of time/amount of data that is being written to these files, increasing the polling interval to 3 seconds will help.

File Adapter (FTP) Receiver modification check

Hi All,
In the sender adapter we can check advanced mode and then check the modification of the file to be picked up so we always take the full file.
We have a scenario where XI writes a file in a server via FTP and a job is executed in that server to process the file, but... How could I be sure that the file is completed before the job is executed? Is there any way to check if the file is changing and wait until it's full to finally write it into the target directory?
My concern is that the job could be executed with an incomplete file...
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
try this:
use: Run Operating System Command After Message Processing
and inside it create a flag file (with the same name
as original but flg extension)
then in your job check for the flag file
and only it the flag exists poll the original file
but try this approach on dev first as you need to be sure that
After Message Processing is done after a large file
is in folder

michal

File adapter parameter "Msecs to Wait Before Modification Check" is gone

We are using PI 7.1 and we have the problem that the file adapter (ftp) picks up incomplete files from time to time. That causes a mapping error.
Have a look at sap note 821267 question 3.
https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1kZSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=821267
Here you can find a solution. But in reality this parameter isn't there. And if you check the current documentation
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/44/655453b48a4ddfe10000000a1553f7/content.htm
you can't find this parameter too.
Has anybody of you the same effect? Does anybody of you know the reason? And the most important question is: What is the solution for this problem. The suggested work around in this note isn't possible for us.

Hi,
May be this thread can give you some idea to deal with your problem.. see my reply there
Re: Use temporary file in FTP receiver adapter
Sorry this will not help you here..
One solution which I think is.....
Put file in your source directory with diff name, and write an script which will rename it to its original name.
The logic for scrip should be something like this.
First of all when reading the file for the very first time then check the size and wait for 10 sec and then again check the size. If both size are same then scrip should rename the file to its original name.

Sarvesh

MSS Modification

Hi All,
   Requirement is to modify an iview under "Compensation" workset in the MSS 60.1 Business Package.
   I have completed the following steps in setting up JDI as per the Cook Book available in SDN.
   1) Created Domain and Track in CMS
   2) Added .sca software comp for MSS to the track
   3) Imported the Track successfully into NWDS using Development Configuration perspective.
   4) DTR is connected (online)on my NWDS.
   Now how do I go about modifying the iview under ECM module? I do not see any iviews in the entire folder stucture which I can check out and modify. There is enough documentation to get this far. But unable to go any further.
   Any help will be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Winston

Hi,
If you want to modify some thing in MSS, first open the DC which you want to modify and look views which starts with VC, then locate exact view and start modifying, once you try to modify it will ask you to create a activity. after modification check in and activate it. If you need further help let me know.

Restricting polling in sender file adapter

Hi friends,
I have a requirement where I need to poll a file from an FTP server. But, if the file is being edited (some other application is writing to it) I need to avoid picking that file. Plz tell me how i can achieve this...waiting for ur replies.
Regards,
Shilpa

Shilpa,
Check out this sap note :
[https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1kZSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=821267|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1kZSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=821267]
File Locking / Incomplete Processing
Q: I sometimes observe that files are processed only partially, i.e., only a fragment from the file's start is converted into an XI message. Nevertheless, the file is usually archived completely. Does the File Sender Adapter honor if another process has locked a file for exclusive use?
A: Unfortunately, the J2EE 1.3 technology the File Adapter is built upon does not support file locking. This limitation affects the File Adapter's operation. Depending on whether the JRE implementation for the operating system under which the adapter runs uses mandatory file locking or advisory file locking, opening a file that is currently being written to by another process will fail or not.
If opening the file fails, no problem exists and the adapter will try to open the file each poll interval until it succeeds.
However, if opening the file is not prevented by the operating system, the adapter starts to process the file although it is still being modified. Since XI 3.0 SP11 / PI 7.0 there is a parameter named "Msecs to Wait Before Modification Check" in the advanced settings of the File Sender channel configuration to work around this issue. This setting causes the File Adapter to wait a certain time after reading, but before sending a file to the Adapter Engine. If the file has been modified (which is basically determined by comparing the size of the read data with the current file size of the input file) after the configured interval has elapsed, the adapter aborts the processing of the file and tries to process the file again after the retry interval has elapsed.
If this option is not available for the settings you would like to use, the following algorithm (to be implemented in your application) may be used to ensure that the File Adapter only processes completely written files:
Create the file using an extension, which does not get processed by the File Adapter, e.g., ".tmp"
Write the file content
Rename the file to its final name, so the File Adapter will notice its existence and pick it up
Hope this will help.
Thanks,
Nilesh

How can I disable the Reason for Rejection field in VA02 line items

Hi,
I dont want the users to be able to change the reason for rejection field in the sales order line items. Can someone please suggest a tried and tested way of doing this
Thanks for reading.

Set up an auth object for the field. In userexit field modification check the auth object and set the field to be grayed out if they don't have authority. Users can then not change the value of the field Sample code
IF screen-name = 'VBAP-ABGRU'.
       AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'Z_BLK_REAS'
               ID 'ABGRU' DUMMY.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        screen-input = 1.
      ELSE.
        screen-input = 0.
      ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Sender File adapter problem

Hi,
I have File to JDBC sceanrio, File is on FTP server and data is added in file in every 15 mint. while adding data to file its takes some time.
My problem : when data is being added to file, sender adapter picks the file when addition of data is not completed. so it picks incomplete file and send to target.
What can be the possible solution to be used for this problem or what configurtaion can be done in CC required.
Thanks
Laxmi Bhushan

Hi Laxmi,
is PI picking file in NFS mode or FTP mode?
With NFS mode, you can use setting wait for file modification check. Same setting is available for FTP but it doesnt not work for FTP.
Another option could be ask Source system to generate file with a temporary name & rename once file is writen completely.

Sender File Adapter - FTP

XI is picking up While File is being written in the Specified Directory. XI uses File adapter ( FTP transport Protocal ) . If file being written is very large ( It may take couple of minutes ) XI picks it up in parts for every 1 minute ( It was configured like that ) and try to send over Which is not correct. Is there any workaround to this issue. In PI 7.0, for NFS file system, SAP included modification check but it doesn't work for ftp file adpater. Basically XI should wait to pickup file until the file written completely in the Source System.
Anyone have any Idea how to overcome this issue ?

Hi,
You could use the Advanced mode checkbox in the file adapter, to specify the time the adapter has to wait, before it checks if the file has been modified.
In case, the file has been modified, after the adapter read the file, the data in the adapter cache is discarded and the updated/modified file is taken from the source path specified.
This would work, only if you have not specified "recordsets per message" during content conversion.

Smitha.

Trigger file in Sender File CC

Hi All,
I have a query regarding the usage of trigger file in Sender File CC.
I am triying to pick .XML files only if respective .trg file is existing. My question is when ever there are 10 files where 9 are completely written and have respective .trg but 10th file still being written(which does not have a .trg file), the other 9 files are also not getting picked.it is waiting for the 10th .trg file throowing an error. But in real time these are dynamic files, when one is completed there may be other file being written. Is there any possibility to pick the 9 files which have .trg and leave the 10th file to be written completely and pick that in the next polling.
Please find the below attachment of configuration.
Kindly post your solutions on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandhya

Hi
If i understand correctly your 10th file is placing into the folder and it was not completely placed yet.For this as suggested you need to use File Modification Check.
Coming to trigger file,once your files are ready (File Modification check success) then using some background job, we used Autosys tool to place the trigger file then PI will pick the files.There should be a gap between the background jobs which places actual data files,trigger file and polling of PI channel.
Please try with SAP SFTP adapter which has more functions compared to normal FILE.In Case of SFTP you no need to use any modules for the payload conversion.
Thanks

Hi
My BPM steps are as follows:
1. Receive step -- Asynch
2. Transformation -- split the message
3. Switch step -- Condition "ID != ' ' from transform message'
4. In side Switch Branch 1 -- Receiver determination - Receive acknowledgment - Application
5. Send 1 -- with Application Transport, Queue Name - 'XXX'
      This XXX queue I have configured on ID with EOIO Service
6. block step - Send multiple messages to same receiver on top
    I have send 2 different message to one receiver, the first message is only one , second message are multiple. I am splitting    with transformation step
7. Sender -2 no acknowledgement active
8. stop
Can you please tell me where I am gonna wrong!!
I will apprecite for your efforts

Xi 3.0 to PI 7.1 Upgrade issues

Hi,
We are upgrading our system from XI 3.0 to PI 7.1. There are 30-40 interfaces running in our landscape . Can anyone please tell me whether it is needed to test all these interfaces after upgrade?
I have read many blogs about the same topic in sdn and collected few points.
the follwoing interfaces needs to be tested :
1.interfaces with third party adapters
2.interfaces with adapter modules deployed on the adapter engine
3.interfaces using java proxy for communication
4.interfaces having xslt mapping,java mapping in the design
5.interfaces with user defined function in the mapping
6.interfaces using standard functions like ifs,if without else etc in the mapping
7.if idoc is used, then , should be tested towards triggering and posting of the IDOC.
8.if XSD is used in any of the interfaces then they should be tested to see if the XSD is working fine
9.interfaces Using HTTPS
please let me know if there are any other conditions missing .
Regards
Jagruthi

For 30-40 interfaces, it would be better to perform tests for all of them. Only if you have say more than 100 interfaces, then you may think of eliminating few of the. This is because even if your interface does not fall into the list you have given or any new list provided by anyone on forums, you are still under risk that your interface could fail.
e.g. say you are using file adapter without any modules. Now no1 will suggest you that you test it. But suppose you are using the feature "Msecs to Wait Before Modification Check" in XI 3.0. Now this option is no longer available in PI 7.1. Then there is no way you can confirm this without the actual testing. I hope I was able to communicate the need

Hi,
Before making any modifications check "Where-used". If it is in some other program other than the VA01/02/03, then better consult your lead before modifying.
If you do not find, go ahead and make the changes confidently.
