Re: IFS to network drive

Hi Joe!

and call it from CL.  

In my environment I've found accessing the IFS from the server to be
more reliable than accessing the server through /QNTC.  I suspect my
experience is because of operation issues, not problems with the /QNTC
file system.

For example:

CHGVAR &CMD ('E:\path_to_batch\ImageUnzip \ftp\import somefile.zip 09174
123456')
RUNRMTCMD  CMD(&CMD) RMTLOCNAME(server *IP) + 
             RMTUSER(whoever) RMTPWD(password)       
Console output goes to print file.

Batch file E:\path_to_batch\ImageUnzip.cmd (don't worry about %3 and %4)

@rem ------------------------------------------------
@rem Unzip %1\%2 from IFS into E:\CTiffWrk\%3\%4
@rem %1 is IFS path of folder from root
@rem %2 is ZIP file
@rem %3 is julian date for path
@rem %4 is job number for path
@rem %5 image data file to copy back to %1
@rem ------------------------------------------------


@rem change back to execution drive and folder of parm 0
%~d0
CD %~p0


@rem map a drive to folder of zip file
NET USE X: \\i5Server%1 password /USER:whoever
@if not exist X:\%2 GOTO noziperr


DIR X:\%2

@rem Java code here to make the directories in E:\CTiffWrk

@rem chg to E:\CTiffWrk\%3\%4
E:
CD \CtiffWrk\%3\%4


@rem unzip
unzip -extract X:\%2

@goto endit


@rem **********************************************************


:noziperr
@rem Unable to find file to unzip
@Echo Zip file not found %2
@goto endit


:endit
@rem cleanup
net use X: /delete
@exit

Anyone out there that may have sent files from IFS to the a network
drive 
with success? An example would work . Is there a *.bat  that has be 
created?
