CONNECT:Direct File Transfer Manager Definitions

The CONNECT:Direct region provides a file transfer service. You can have more than one CONNECT:Direct region (at the same version level) on a system to provide that service. CA NetMaster FTM manages these regions through the information in the CONNECT:Direct file transfer manager resource definitions.

A manager can be defined for a job, a started task, or an application on a distributed system such as Windows.

CONNECT:Direct Manager Templates for Jobs and Started Tasks

Templates are provided for defining CONNECT:Direct managers in the knowledge base. The templates contain the following information to help you manage a CONNECT:Direct region:

• System commands that activate, inactivate, and retrieve status information about the CONNECT:Direct region.
• System and CONNECT:Direct messages, and CONNECT:Direct monitor resource events that change the actual state of the region. For messages that indicate a problem, you might want to include a CA NetMaster FTM process that takes certain actions (for example, to record the problem in your problem management application).

CONNECT:Direct Manager Template for Distributed Systems Applications

Templates are provided for defining managers for CONNECT:Direct for Windows in the knowledge base.

The templates contain the CA NetMaster FTM processes that activate, inactivate, and retrieve status information about the communication path to the remote system.
