Status Not under consideration

A requirement for larger messages to be supported in a future release of WMQ FTE.

The customer was unable to create large messages on z/OS queue using File to Queue .
The state message is held on the SYSTEM.FTE.STATE. queue. This limits the maximum output message size that can be written to around 33MB as you observe.
There is currently no way around this. Please raise a requirement if you would like larger messages to be supported in a future release.
.
WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition does not automatically split messages if they are larger than 100MB as you observe. To split the files based on size you must use the -qs parameter on the fteCreateTransfer command.
Due to the way that WebSphere check points transfers the state message for the transfer may need to store up to 3 times the maximum output message size worth of data.
The state messages that are written to the SYSTEM.FTE.STATE. queue perstistently and may be up to 3 * maxInputOutputMessageLength + 1048576 bytes in size. There is one state message for each source and destination transfer. The size of the page sets needs to take this into consideration.

    We recognise that this is a valid requirement. However it doesn't fit with our delivery plans for the next couple of years.

    As a result we are declining this Idea. While declined the Idea can still be voted, and commented, upon.
