Variable Explanation
__________________________________________________________________
/qualifier An RMS qualifier of the APPEND command. For a
full description of supported qualifiers, see
individual qualifier subtopics; for a summary,
see the "Qualifier" subtopic.
input-file-spec A file specification of an input (source) file,
which can be either local or remote.
[,...] A file list containing file specifications for
one or more additional input files. Within a file
list, you must precede each additional file spec-
ification with either a comma (,) or a plus sign
(+) with or without a space. To end an input file
list, either omit the comma or plus sign between
the last input file specification and the output
file specification or press <RET>.
Input files can be from the same or different
FTAM systems.
output-file- The name of an output file. Because FTAM
spec always creates only one output file, the
APPEND/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=FTAM command ac-
cepts only one output-file specification.
For local output files, appending a file to a
local directory is controlled by the same rules
that control the RMS appending utility. If you
specify no directory, the utility places the
output file in your default directory. If you
specify another local directory for which you
have write privileges, the utility places the
output file in that directory.
For remote output files, always specify the file
designation. For information on where a remote
FTAM system places an output file that is created
remotely using FTAM, see the documentation of the
remote system.
