Action
Points to check
Is the file waited for by chkfile.exe, chkfile.sh, or jobschchkfile large?
Cause
The chkfile.exe, chkfile.sh, and jobschchkfile commands wait for the file to be created, but do not wait for the creation of the file to complete. If file transfer is performed for a large file using the ftp command, for example, the file itself is created even though the transfer does not complete, so chkfile.exe, chkfile.sh, and jobschchkfile will end.
Action method
If file transfer is performed for a large file using chkfile.exe, chkfile.sh, or jobschchkfile, consider using a dummy (small) file for chkfile.exe, chkfile.sh, or jobschchkfile to wait for after the large file transfer is complete.
