EZA1725I

subcommand fails -- localFile is
not a named pipe
Explanation
 The subcommand that you issued specified a file
in the client z/OS®  UNIX file system as the local file.
 The local file is not a z/OS UNIX named  pipe, and UNIXFILETYPE=FIFO
is configured.   A local file in the z/OS UNIX file system must be a named
pipe when UNIXFILETYPE=FIFO is configured.  
 For more information
about the UNIXFILETYPE configuration option, see the following sources: The UNIXFILETYPE statement in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration
Reference
The LOCSIte subcommand in z/OS Communications Server: IP User's Guide and
Commands
The information about using z/OS UNIX System
Services named pipes in z/OS Communications Server: IP User's Guide and
Commands

 In the message text:  subcommand
The subcommand that failed.
localFile
The local file in the client's z/OS UNIX file system.

System action
 FTP stops processing subcommand,  and prompts
you to enter the next subcommand.

Operator response
 None. 

System programmer response
 None.

User response
 If you intended to specify a named pipe, do one
of the following:  Reissue the subcommand with a z/OS UNIX named pipe specified as the
local file. 
If the subcommand is get or mget,
reissue the subcommand and specify a name that does not yet exist
in the z/OS UNIX file system.

 If you did not intend to specify a named pipe, issue
the LOCSIte subcommand with the UNIXFILETYPE=FILE parameter.  Then
issue the subcommand again. 

Problem determination
 To determine whether a z/OS UNIX file
is a regular file or a named pipe, use the z/OS UNIX ls command.

 To create a named pipe, use the z/OS UNIX mkfifo or mknode command. 
 See
the information about the long output format in z/OS UNIX System Services Command Reference.
