File naming convention in FTP

The following figure explains the file naming convention when using FTP

  • If you want to target or replace a particular member with FTP, you can do so by adding the member in the command.
  • Note: In the IBM i system LIBRARY, FILE and MEMBER names can only be a maximum of 10 characters or fewer.
  • Unix, Windows-based systems do not have these restrictions. File naming conventions may be a consideration when you build FTP automated applications.
