IT32803: FILEOUTPUT NODE TRANSFERS FILES TO HOME DIRECTORY INSTEAD OF CONFIGURED REMOTE SERVER DIRECTORY.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In the case of FileOutput node, the value of 'ServerDirectory'
  property is overridden by the corresponding value in the FTP
  Server policy, if it is set. But once the FtpServer policy is
  specified using ESQL, 'SET
  OutputLocalEnvironment.Destination.File.Remote.Server =
  '{MyPolicies}:MyFtpPolicy'' then the 'ServerDirectory' value
  configured in the FileOutput Node is always ignored and the
  FileOutput node transfer files to the home directory (.) of the
  user even if 'ServerDirectory' property is not overridden in the
  FTP Server policy.
  

Local fix

• Specify the  remoteServerDirectory value in the policy instead
  of as a FileOutput Node property.
