Compression | Compression type of the source files. Determines if the agent will decompress the files before passing them on into the workflow.
|
File Limit | The maximum number of files processed in each batch. |
Byte Limit | The maximum number of bytes processed in each batch. Note! Note that limits are set per directory, that is, the batch will be closed when the last file of a sub directory has been processed even if the File Limit or Byte Limit closing condition has not been reached. |
If enabled, the source files are moved to the automatically created subdirectory | |
Inactive Source Warning (hours) | If the specified value is greater than zero, and if no file has been collected during the specified number of hours, the following message is logged: The source has been idle for more than <n> hours, the last inserted file is <file>. |
