Status during Transfer
Display can be specified as the output device, when the current transfer request is created or changed. This sends the transferred record to the screen. On the screen, each record is displayed on one line.
Each field in a transferred record is converted from the iSeries™, eServer™ i5,
or System i5™ data type to workstation code.
Note: The workstation receives
the iSeries™, eServer™ i5,
or System i5™ records in order and then writes them
to a temporary file of the default directory in the default drive
(usually, the directory in which PC400 is installed). The maximum
number of records that can be transferred is 4096 records, limited
by the amount of records that can be stored in free space of the default
drive.
When Disk is selected as the output device,
the following actions are performed:
- The workstation file description is written to a workstation disk file or diskette file according to the Save File Description File specification. (If Save File Description File has not been specified, this procedure is not performed.)
- The transferred records are written to a workstation disk file or diskette file.
