AFD Info Window


The afd_info dialog shows information on a specified host. This information is stored in an ASCII text file which must be in the directory $AFD_WORK_DIR/etc/info. This file must have the following name: <hostname> or if you want to place it in a central file it must be in $AFD_WORK_DIR/etc/host.info. Any changes in this file will be shown immediately. The other information is described in the following table:

 1  If known the IP address of the primary host will be displayed here.
 2  If known the IP address of the secondary host will be displayed here.
 3  The real hostname, not the one being displayed by the afd_ctrl dialog for the primary host.
 4  The real hostname, not the one being displayed by the afd_ctrl dialog for the secondary host.
 5  The total number of files that have been transmitted since this host was created.
 6  The total number of bytes that have been transmitted since this host was created.
 7  The time of the last connection to this host.
 8  The total number of connections to the remote host.
 9  Total number errors that have so far occurred to this host.
 10  The interval in minutes at which AFD will retry to connect to this host after an error has occurred.
 11  The protocols used by this host.
 12  Display area where the information of the info file will be displayed.

If you have the correct permissions you will also be able to edit the information and the Save button will be visible so you can save the information.
