NonStop FTAM and the Guardian File System
NonStop FTAM and the Guardian File System
To access local files on NonStop systems, FTAM applications need to communicate
with the Guardian file system using Guardian system procedures. To develop NonStop
FTAM applications, you should be familiar with using FTAM procedures with Guardian
procedures for effective FTAM file transfer. For more information about using the
Guardian system procedures in FTAM applications, refer to the OSI/FTAM
Programming Guide.
