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.

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.
