Hi,gurus:

My sender adapter is file adapter,and I want to know whether the file which is locked will be picked up by XI? Thanks in advance.

Hi li,

Can you explain what you mean by Locked File?

I mean Is it locked by XI FileAdapter (or) some other application other than XI?

Thanks,

Hi,Praveen:

Yes,you are right.

The locked file means the file was locked by other applications.

Hi,

As far as I know,

If it is locked by some other application, XI File Adapter cannot read the file until unless the other application releases the lock.

Hi.

The file has to be released by the xternal application before it gets picked up by the File Adaper.

Hi,

I just simulated your requirement,

if the file is locked by some thirdparty application, the XI File Adapter cannot read the File.

The error message for this Sender File Channel(in RWB) will always be "Could not process due to error: java.io.IOException: The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file" irrespecitve of the processing mode in File Channel configuration.

Thanks,

If the file is locked by some other application, it won't be picked up by XI.

Hi,

We can't read file until locked one release. Any application locked file, the same file same time we can't read. We can read that file after release only.

Hi ,

In the sender File Adapter -> Processing Parameters....

Check the Process Read-Only Files (for transport protocol File System (NFS))

Set the indicator if you want to also transfer files that are locked by other applications.
