You can monitor file transfers by viewing the File Transfer dialog box, shown in File Transfer Dialog Box. Its contents are described in the following list:
The Session Number, from 1 to 10. All your display sessions are listed in this box.
The unique identifier for each session. For instructions for changing this option, see Customizing Display Sessions.
The name of the host session record in the configuration file.
Indicates whether the session is ready to communicate with the host or is already communicating. To transfer files on a session, you must be logged on to the host. The following list explains the possible session status messages.
Disabled
The session is not communicating with TCP/IP. You must enable a session before using it to perform file transfer.
Enabled nnn
The session is initializing communications with TCP/IP.The variable
nnnis the communications check code, displayed as
-+z_nnnon the status line of the 3270 session. The code indicates why the 3270 emulation program has not yet established communications with the host. Status Line Information, explains communications check codes.
The status may also appear as
Enabledwithout a communications check code for a few seconds before it changes to
SSCP.
SSCP
The session has established communications with the host, but is not yet communicating with a host application.
NVT
The session is communicating with the host TN3270 program using data messages in Network Virtual Terminal (NVT) format. This format uses no header and ends all ASCII lines with a carriage return and line feed (CR LF).
TN3270
The session is communicating with the host TN3270 program using data messages in TN3270 format. This format uses no header, LU type 2 data, and TELNET END-OF-RECORD (EOR).
TN3270E
The session is communicating with the host TN3270 program using data messages in TN3270E format. This format uses a 5-byte header, various data types, and TELNET END-OF-RECORD (EOR).
TN3287
The session is communicating with the host TN3270 program using data messages in TN3287 format. This format uses one zero-byte prefix for LU type 1 or LU type 3 data, and TELNET END-OF-RECORD (EOR).
Host_application_name
The 3270 emulation program is communicating with the named host application. This name is shown if it is available from the BIND image exchanged during session activation. If the BIND image is not available, either the value
TN3270or
TN3270Eis shown.
Indicates availability of the session for file transfer and the progress of any transfer already started. The possible Transfer Status messages are as follows:
Available
No file transfer is in progress. The session is active and the host is ready to receive file transfer requests.
Unavailable
The session is not enabled; or communication with the host is established, but the user is not yet logged on to the host.
Receiving
Receive operation is in progress on this session. The number of bytes already transferred is shown.
Sending
Send operation is in progress on this session. The number of bytes already transferred is shown.
Busy
This indicates one of the following:
A file transfer operation is ending; a list box displays any file transfer messages generated by the transfer. For more information, see File Transfer Messages.
The session cannot be used for file transfer at the moment (for example, it is currently receiving data from the host).
Complete
A file transfer has been completed. The total number of bytes transferred is shown.
The number in this field keeps you informed about file transfer progress by showing the number of characters transferred so far.
Messages related to the current (or most recent) file transfer on the highlighted session are shown in the Messages list box. If there are more messages than can be displayed at one time, you can scroll to display them.
See File Transfer Messages, for explanations of the 3270 emulation program messages and
TRANSnnnhost messages that may appear in this list box. For host systems that use other messages (such as
INWnnnn), refer to your host documentation for explanations of the messages.
The File Transfer dialog box provides the following push buttons:
Displays the Options for SESSnn dialog box. In it you define host parameters such as the host environment, file size, and whether EBCDIC to ASCII translation is required. For information and instructions for completing this dialog box, see Setting Host File Transfer Parameters.
Displays the Transfer (MVS/TSO, VM/CMS, or CICS) File on SESS nn dialog box. You must enter information about files and enter Send or Receivecommands in this dialog box. For information and instructions for completing this dialog box, see Transferring Files with an MVS/TSO Host, Transferring Files with a VM/CMS Host, or Transferring Files with a CICS Host.
Displays the Abort File Transfer on SESSnn dialog box, in which you can terminate a file transfer in progress. For information and instructions for completing this dialog box, see Stopping a File Transfer in Progress.
Leaves the File Transfer dialog box and returns to the main screen.
