Ignore (-I or -IGNORE) 
The Ignore command (-I or -IGNORE) allows specified FTP error codes to be 
ignored by the adapter. 
-IGNORE error_code[:error_code…] 
Option Description 
error_code 
Specify the FTP error codes to be ignored by the 
adapter. A colon (:) must separate multiple error 
codes. 
For example, if you specified the command: 
-I 450:550 
the adapter ignores errors of type 450 (file busy) and errors of type 550 (file not 
available) and returns a zero-length file to the map. A list of error codes appears 
in RFC 959 (beginning on page 37 of the document at 
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0959.txt). 
Keep Server (-KS) 
Use the Keep Server adapter command (-KS) to specify in a map rule that when 
retrieving a file from an FTP server, it should not be deleted after transfer. 
This option should be used if this behavior is desired when using the 
GET mapping 
function. When invoking the adapter from an input card, the same behavior can be 
accomplished through the card property, OnSuccess, by setting it to Keep.
This is an optional command.
