================================================================================================

A.	Download the UNIX/LINUX version of the new eVA File Transfer Client (FTC) from: 
		
        https://evabiz.dgs.virginia.gov/javaclient/install.aspx

==================================

B.  eVA File Transfer Client Setup
==================================

	The eVA File Transfer can be downloaded to your computer or installed directly from the website,
	
        (https://evabiz.dgs.virginia.gov/JavaClient/install.aspx)

	To install the application from the installer file downloaded to your computer, click on the installer file.

	For example DGSClient_Unix-5.0-AIX-ppc-Install for IBM AIX installer downloaded.


	After the download and installation of the Unix version of the eVA File Transfer Client (FTC) create
	
        the following sub-folders in the folder where the eVA File Transfer Client was installed 
	
        (/usr/local/DGSClient5.0 in our example).
 
	1)  Log                  - (Common) This contains logs of all transmissions from the FTC, 
                                   and lets you know if any transmission failed.

	2)  Error                - (Common) This contains logs of errors encountered by the FTC.
 
	3)  VendorReport         - (Downloads) The FTC downloads Vendor output files to this location.
 
	4)  OrderExport          - (Downloads) The FTC downloads Order Export files to this location.

	5)  Requisition          - (Import Uploads) This is where you will place your interface batch files to be 
                                   transmitted/uploaded to eVA.
 
	6)  Requisition-Archive  - (Import Uploads Archive) After transmission to eVA, interface batch files are placed here.
 
	7)  Attachment           - (Import Uploads) This is where you will place any input attachment associated with 
                                   Requisitions to be uploaded to eVA.
 
	8)  Attachment-Archive   - (Import Uploads Archive) After transmission to eVA, input attachments are placed here.
	
	9)  Solicitation         - (Import Uploads) 
This folder is used for dropping interface Solicitation batch files to
                
		    be transmitted to eVA. 
			
	
       10)  Solicitation-Archive - (Import Uploads Archive)
			
                                   This folder is used to archive interface Solicitation files transmitted successfully

			           to eVA.  Files transmitted successfully are moved from the Solicitation folder
			
                                   to this folder.  You should have a process to periodically delete older files from

			           this location.



	
                       Important Note: The folder names and paths must match the entries in the FileManager.xml file
	                
                                       that will be provided by the DGS IT support team.
			        
                                       Depending on your upload/download needs, you may not need to create all 
					
                                       the folders listed above, except for the Common folders.  The DGS IT support 
					
                                       team will help you with this setup.



========================================

C.  Provide Directory Structures To DGS

========================================

   	Provide information of the directory structure from step B above including the absolute path of the
   
   	location the sub-folders were created to the DGS IT support team. The DGS IT support team will send you a 
   
   	configuration file (FileManager.xml) that must be placed in the base directory 
   	(
   /usr/local/DGSClient5.0/ in our example). 
   	The configuration file includes a shared key that is exclusive to your agency or institution.

===============================

D.  Executing eVA File Transfer

===============================

	After the FileManager.xml file is received from the DGS IT support team, the eVA File Transfer Client is 
	
        now installed and ready for use.

	
        Run the FTC manually or from another program in your installation by using: /usr/local/DGSClient5.0/runFTC.sh
	
        as an example.


	==================

	runFTC.sh content
	==================


	#!/bin/csh -f       ### assuming C-shell ... change to other shell if needed

	echo JRE is jdk8u275-b01-jre

	### executable must be in base directory alongside all jar files and FileManager.xml.

	jdk8u275-b01-jre/bin/java -classpath ./fileManager.jar:./commons-codec-1.6.jar:./xercesImpl.jar:./resolver.jar:./serializer.jar:./xml-apis.jar:./jcert.jar:./jnet.jar:./jsse.jar:./ibm_jsse.jar  cova.dgs.eva.fileManager

	echo done with run

	exit 0


        The script "runFTC.sh" can be used to upload/download files using the specifications in FileManager.xml.
