IT17912: ALLOW FILENODES TO SET PERMISSIONS OF OUTPUT FILES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The default permission given to file created by the FileOutput
  node is enforced by the Operating System based on the
  permissions of the parent folder and the umask of the
  DataFlowEngine process. This APAR allows the flow developer to
  override the permissions by setting the following local
  environment variable:
  
  LocalEnvironment.Destination.File.PosixPermissions =
  <permissions string>
  
  Where <permissions string> is a 3 digit octal string with each
  digit representing the owner, group and world permissions using
  the same format as the unix chmod command.
