PI - how to see if File has been transferred

[former_member201275]

PI Newbie here again.

How do I see if a File has been transferred successfully by PI?

The Config Scenario, and the 2 Communication channels are setup, but I need to see if the file has been transferred. I have been to the runtime workbench but not sure how to do this. I clicked on the Adapter Engine, then Communication Channels, then entered my communication channels and all the icons are green... but how/where can i see if the file has been transferred from Sender to Receiver.

All help greatly appreciated.

1.Place a file in sender file directory based on polling time you configured on sender file adapter configuration file will be picked by PI.

2.In communication channel(CC) monitoring search for your CCwhen you click on your CC just scroll down , you can find channel polling details if any file transffered then beside that polling time you can find hyperlink for file details.

3.You can check in sxi_monitor whether any message processed or not .

4.Also you can check RWB message monitoring also for processed message details.

When I go into CC monitoring, I get the screen below, not sure where to go from here to see polling details etc.?

Hi,

2 nodes are there under cluster node details for channel . Also you can check the second radio button and see whether you are getting any polling details or not.

Could you please tell what all configuration activities you have performed in Integration directory

I still cannot determine if the Scenario has worked and if the file has been transferred. ((((

Hi Glen,

can you run the interface again and check it? channels works fine.

did you create ESR objects?

if yes go to sxi_monitor

select correct time and use user sender interface name.

you will be able to see your interface messages.

finally check the receiver folder.

Thanks for your reply.

I am sometimes seeing an error when testing the sender communication channel. Not sure why but seems okay for some hours then not! See snapshot below.

Yes the ESR objects are created, there exist the 2 business systems, 2 CC's i.e. sender and receiver, and the Integrated config also exists.

There is nothing in the sxi monitor. I had confirmation from the send client that they have dropped a file on the server from where our PI object should automatically fetch this.

I don't have access to the receiver folder unfortunately.

Hi,

Its seems like remote ftp server (directrory from which pi is trying to pull file) is down or PI server dont have access privilege to the FTP server.

Try to ping FTP server ip from PI server and ss whether you are getting any reply or not.

sender channel is the first check.

it looks there is firewall between pi and sender sftp server. Ask the basis to working on firewall.

you can just log into PI in os level.

and do the telnet. basis people know this command.

you can do the same procedure to receiver channel.

Hi Glen,

As for your Screenshot this is sometimes network issue is going on at Receiver side.

I am sometimes seeing an error when testing the sender communication channel. Not sure why but seems okay for some hours then not! See snapshot below...

when your getting Error from that time Red status showing One hour if the message processed Successfully also.

and you r using ICOs in this Case the message not showing in integration engine.

Hi Anthony,

I hope you have created sender agreement and assigned your sender comm. channel to it.

If you have access for your file folder then check there if files you have placed is there or not. If its moved from there then check sxmb_moni in PI.

Secondly, you can check in adapter engine and Integration engine of RWB.

Please share your file adapter settings as well as demo file content.To check more on this issue.

Hi,

Before checking in Adapter Engine (RWB) have you checked the Message in SXMB_MONI ....

whether the message is successful or not. if it shows the successful flag then go to Communication channel monitoring , give your receiver channel name and seen if there is any error or not (normally green icons indicate error free). also clicking on the channel u can see the details. Like .....
