As of December 1, 2020, Focal Point is retired and repurposed as a reference repository. We value the wealth of knowledge that's been shared here over the years. You'll continue to have access to this treasure trove of knowledge, for search purposes only.
New TIBCO Community Coming Soon
In early summer, TIBCO plans to launch a new community—with a new user experience, enhanced search, and expanded capabilities for member engagement with answers and discussions! In advance of that, the current myibi community will be retired on April 30. We will continue to provide updates here on both the retirement of myibi and the new community launch.
What You Need to Know about Our New Community
We value the wealth of knowledge and engagement shared by community members and hope the new community will continue cultivating networking, knowledge sharing, and discussion.
During the transition period, from April 20th until the new community is launched this summer, myibi users should access the TIBCO WebFOCUS page to engage.
The folder ReportCaster_Target on the GBWF1 machine is a shared folder, where Everyone has Write privilege. It works, I can perform a TABLE FILE command and save a hold file in that location and get the master and the data file.
So my real challenge is to get this to happen across a Windows Domain barrier. The routine will be running in Domain MVSRC and the location I want to drop the files to is MVDST. I don't have access to do this from MVSRC yet, but I'm experimenting within MVDST and tried the following:
0 NUMBER OF RECORDS IN TABLE= 42 LINES= 25 (FOC418) THE DISK CONTAINING THE FOCUS FILE IS NOT WRITABLE 0 ERROR AT OR NEAR LINE 30 IN PROCEDURE ADHOCRQ FOCEXEC * (FOC348) ERROR WRITING HOLD FILE DESCRIPTION TO HOLD MASTER
My guess is this is more about getting the syntax just right, not a fundamental barrier in WF in a Windows architecture.
Here's the question -- has anybody walked this path? Is there a particular way to address machines in a different domain with the APP MAP command?
The only thing I haven't tried is a "-DOS net use" command, and I don't know if my intended server allows DOS commands.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Emily McAllister>,

My concern is that FOCUS will have as much trouble understanding the domain name in your ! COPY command as it did in the APP MAP command. But I can give it a try.
I have to do all of this through Report Caster, so I don't have easy access or understanding of the app structure I'm working with. My wingmen are being a bit parochial with their data access.
