Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the file transfer method to activate a job for the unit of a transfer request without lowering the throughput of a system even when retransmission is designated. CONSTITUTION:First of all, when a transfer processing is started, a transfer device 1 receives transfer information from an information managing device 2, executes a file transfer processing and judges whether the transferred result is normal or not. When the result is normal, the job for normality is started 3, and the transfer processing is finished. When the transferred result is abnormal, it is judged whether the transmission is designated or not and when the retransmission is not continuously designated, the job for abnormality is started 3 so as to finish the transfer processing as it is. When the retransmission is designated, after returning to the beginning, the transfer processing is executed again.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a file transfer method, and more particularly to a file transfer method in the case of transferring a file for which resending is specified in file transfer in outgoing transfer.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional file transfer method, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3, transfer information is obtained from an information management device in step (hereinafter referred to as S) 11, file transfer processing is performed in S12, and in S13. Judge whether the transfer result is normal,
If it is normal, the normal job is started in S14 and the transfer processing is terminated. If the transfer result is abnormal, the abnormal job is started in S15, and subsequently, in S16, whether or not there is a resend designation. If there is no resend designation, the transfer process is terminated as it is, and if there is a resend designation, the process returns to S12 to perform the file transfer process again.

[0003]

The conventional file transfer method described above is a job after transferring a file with a resend designation in the case where the transfer mode cannot be normally transferred due to a failure or the like. With regard to the number of activations regarding, the job is activated every time a transfer is performed, assuming that one file transfer has been performed.
Since a plurality of jobs are activated in response to one transfer request, there is a problem that the processing capacity is reduced.

An object of the present invention is to provide a file transfer method capable of activating a job in units of transfer requests even if a resend is designated and without lowering the processing capacity of the system.

[0005]

According to the file transfer method of the present invention, data is transmitted and received to and from a remote computer system via a communication line. Therefore, job start information for starting a job in transfer request units and actual transfer are performed. Transfer information about the file from the information management device, perform the file transfer process, and if the transfer result is normal, start a normal job,
If it is abnormal, start the abnormal job. In the file transfer method, determine whether there is a resend command before starting the abnormal job, and if there is no resend specification, start the abnormal job. It is a configuration that does.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.

The system for carrying out the present invention is roughly divided into a transfer device 1 for actually transferring data and an information management device 2 for managing the definition of data transfer by the user according to the definition of the user. The unit includes a job activation device 3 for each transfer request.

Next, the operation will be described.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart of one embodiment of the present invention.

First, when the transfer process is activated, the transfer information is obtained from the information management device in S1, the file transfer process is performed in S2, it is determined in S3 whether the transfer result is normal, and if normal, the process is S4. When the normal job is started, the transfer process is terminated, and the transfer result is abnormal, it is determined in S5 whether or not there is a resend designation, and then in S6, if there is no resend designation, the abnormal job is determined. Start up, end the transfer process as it is,
If a resend is designated, the process returns to S2 to perform the file transfer process again, and thereafter, any one of the steps already described is performed and the process ends.

With this configuration, the job can be activated only once even when the resend is designated.

[0013]

As described above, according to the present invention, since data is transmitted / received to / from a remote computer system via a communication line, job start information for activating a job for each transfer request and transfer information for actual transfer. In the file transfer method, a file transfer process is performed, a normal job is started if the transfer result is normal, and an abnormal job is started if the transfer result is abnormal. By deciding whether or not there is a resend specification before starting, and by starting the job for abnormality when there is no resend specification, even if resend is specified, it is possible to start jobs in transfer request units, This has the effect of not reducing the processing capacity of the system.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. In order to transmit and receive data to and from a remote computer system via a communication line, job start information for starting a job in transfer request units and transfer information regarding actual transfer are taken from an information management device, and file transfer processing is performed. If the transfer result is normal, the normal job is started, and if it is abnormal, the abnormal job is started. In the file transfer method, whether resend is specified before the abnormal job is started. A method of transferring a file, comprising determining whether or not to resend, and activating the job for abnormality when there is no designation of resending.
