Specifies whether the remote partner is to release unused DASD space when creating a file.
The remote partner is to release unused DASD space.
The unused DASD space that is specified for the transfer is released when the file is closed at the end of the transfer.
The remote partner is not to release unused DASD space.
The Additional File Information screen allows the requester to enter additional information about the local or remote file. The parameters on the Additional File Information fall into three categories:
The Unicode Transfer parameters are used to specify parameters for character set conversion of the source file for transfer. The Unicode Transfer parameters are used by CA XCOM Data Transport to call the IBM Unicode Services API to perform data conversion.
The CA XCOM Gateway parameters are used to specify parameters when a file transfer request is to transmit data to a CA XCOM Gateway.
The USS File System parameters are used to specify parameters when a file transfer request is to transmit USS file system data.
Invoke the screen by either entering the command FILEINFO on the command line or by pressing the PF10 key on any of the following panels:
The defaults for the Additional File Information parameters have two different sources:
A sample Additional File Information screen follows:
06/25/13 CA XCOM Release v12 USER01 12.177 Additional File Information 13:50 COMMAND ===> Local Information

The Local Information fields of the Additional File Information screen pertain to the local system.
The local file name specified for the transfer. This field is informational and cannot be changed on the Additional File Information screen.
This parameter specifies the local character set of the source data.
nnnnnn - specifies the CCSID number that corresponds to the character set of the local file. Valid values are 1 - 65535.
tttttttt (optional) – specifies the technique search order IBM Unicode Services uses when performing conversion. From 1 to 8 characters are specified. Valid values to use are:
R - Roundtrip conversion
E - Enforced Subset conversion
C - Customized conversion
L - Language Environment Behavior conversion
M - Modified for special use conversion
B - Bidi transformation (Bi-directional) conversion
0-9 - User defined conversions
Note: If the technique search order is not specified, Unicode Services defaults to ‘RECLM’.
This parameter specifies an optional encoding for which the specified Local Charset is based. The encoding can only specify EBCDIC.
This parameter specifies the delimiters to use for USS-based output files when FILEDATA=TEXT.
Valid options:
NA – Not applicable, the system default delimiter is used.
NL – New line
CR – Carriage return
LF – Line feed
CRLF – Carriage return/Line feed
LFCR – Line feed/Carriage return
CRNL – Carriage return/New line
The Remote Information fields of the Additional File Information screen pertain to the remote partner system.
The remote file name specified for the transfer. This field is informational and cannot be changed on the Additional File Information screen.
This parameter specifies the remote character set for the target data.
When the remote system is CA XCOM Data Transport for z/OS:
nnnnnn - specifies the CCSID number that corresponds to the character set of the local file. Valid values are 1 - 65535.
tttttttt (optional) – specifies the technique search order IBM Unicode Services uses when performing conversion. From 1 to 8 characters are specified. Valid values to use are:
R - Roundtrip conversion
E - Enforced Subset conversion
C - Customized conversion
L - Language Environment Behavior conversion
M - Modified for special use conversion
B - Bidi transformation (Bi-directional) conversion
0-9 - User defined conversions
Note: If the technique search order is not specified, Unicode Services defaults to ‘RECLM’.
When the remote system is CA XCOM Data Transport for Windows or CA XCOM Data Transport for Linux/Unix:
nnnnnn - specifies the CCSID number that corresponds to the character set. Valid values are 1 - 65535.
Alternatively, can be specified as an IANA character set name, or (ICU) acceptable alias name.
This parameter specifies an optional encoding for which the specified Remote Charset is based.
When the remote system is CA XCOM Data Transport for z/OS, the encoding can be only EBCDIC. When the remote system is CA XCOM Data Transport for Windows or CA XCOM Data Transport for Linux/Unix, the encoding can be either ASCII or EBCDIC.
This parameter specifies a colon separated list of record delimiters that are used to mark and detect the end of a record.
Valid options:
NA – Not applicable, the system default delimiter is used.
NL – New line
CR – Carriage return
LF – Line feed
CRLF – Carriage return/Line feed
LFCR – Line feed/Carriage return
CRNL – Carriage return/New line
VT – Vertical Tabulation
FF – Form Feed
PS – Paragraph Separation
LS – Line Separation
The tables list the valid delimiters for the various encodings, along with delimiters that are mutually exclusive with each one. CA XCOM Data Transport validates the delimiters that are specified and terminates a transfer where mutually exclusive delimiters are specified.
Note: For EBCDIC rules, the ‘FF’ delimiter is only valid for Linux/Unix/Windows platforms.

Identifies the remote file as a CA XCOM Gateway file and specifies the CA XCOM Gateway GUID. The CA XCOM Gateway GUID is a unique value that identifies each CA XCOM Gateway file.
Specify one of the following items:
Default: None (blank)
The General Information fields of the Additional File Information screen pertain to both the local and the remote partner system.
This parameter identifies the appropriate action when the input file contains data that is not consistent with the specified input character set.
Replace each piece of erroneous data with the default substitution characters defined for the Unicode character set.
The Replacement Character causes replacement of each piece of erroneous data with the Unicode character that the decimal value nnnnnnn identifies. This option is not supported for z/OS systems, where the replacement character is defined in the conversion table that is defined to IBM Unicode Services. The replacement character has a valid range of 1 – 1114111.
The erroneous data is disregarded, but a warning message is issued at the end of the transfer. The message identifies that this condition occurred and provides a total count of the number of ignored bytes. This option is not supported for z/OS systems and is treated as REPLACE.
The transfer terminates with an error condition.
This parameter identifies the action when the input file contains characters that cannot be converted. The characters are not included within the output character sets character repertoire.
Replace each unconvertible character with the default substitution characters defined for the Unicode character set.
The Replacement Character causes replacement of each piece of erroneous data with the Unicode character that the decimal value nnnnnnn identifies. This option is not supported for z/OS systems, where the replacement character is defined in the conversion table that is defined to IBM Unicode Services. The replacement character has a valid range of 1 – 1114111.
The erroneous data is disregarded, but a warning message is issued at the end of the transfer. The message identifies that this condition occurred and provides a total count of the number of skipped characters. This option is not supported for z/OS systems and is treated as REPLACE.
The transfer terminates with an error condition.
