Hi guys,

Need some help on this. I did search the Forum for something like the one i need but didn't find.

My problem is this:

I need to FTP some files from DHCP servers, and the logs created have this name SERVER1_WEEKDAY.log

Ex: Maximo_Mon.log

Using AFT to do this and using de Autoedit variable %%WDAY or any other it gives always the number.

o=Sunday, 1=Monday, 2=Tuesday

How can i do this ti have thw parameter like the one in Example?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Look the '%%LIBMEMSYSM' special AutoEdit variable. It can be used in the AutoEdit Assignment to indicate a text file containing a list of AutoEdit assignments.
This variable enables you to create a central file containing your AutoEdit assignment statements that can be read by many job processing definitions.

See usage in 'CONTROL-M Job Parameter and Variable Reference Guide'
