File Adapter for picking multiple files in sequence based on condition

178 Views

Hi PI Experts,

In our scenario, SAP BW is writing 3 files in one of NFS location.

.dat file ( Which contains the records or data )

.man file ( Which contains total number of records in .dat file, run data and time of .dat file etc )

.done file ( This is the empty file, which means other two files .dat and .man are completed and its ready to pickup )

SAP PI need to pick the above files only if the .done file is written in NFS location.

Currently we are using the Integrated Configurations, and the SAP PI picks the .dat file before .done file is written in NFS.

We can increase the scheduling time but not sure how much time SAP BW takes to write the files.

Some .dat files sizes are more then 3GB and it takes several hours to write the files.

So is there any way we can specify that the other files needs to be picked up in sequence based on the existance of one file.

like in our case PI has to pick .dat file from the folder only if .done file is available.

and it should pick in the below in sequence as

.dat

.man

.done

Thanks,

Kiran.
