Working in a sandbox on IBM 4690
IBM® MQ Managed File Transfer uses sandboxing to restrict the area of the file system that an agent or a user can access as part of a transfer. To limit access, agent sandboxing uses the sandboxRoot property and user sandboxing uses the information in the UserSandboxes.xml file.
The sandboxRoot property and information in the UserSandboxes.xml file both
specify path information that is compared against the paths specified in a transfer request. On 4690, the way that path information is interpreted in these
files is subject to the following, additional, rules:
- Paths are assumed to be native 4690 paths, for example: f:\adxetc
- Paths on F: drive are case-sensitive. Paths on all drives except F: drive are case-insensitive.
- You can specify paths that contain logical names. Logical names are expanded as part of the comparison. Therefore, LN1:\DIR\FILE.TXT might be the same as LN2:\FILE.TXT depending on the path information associated with LN1 and LN2.
