Exception: Unknown policy attribute 'separator' supplied in policy, with value:/xFF

Trying to implement a policy for a M2F transfer. The source is a fixed-length flat file, being transferred to the mainframe..

 

When I write the policy as a fixed length policy, I get the error:  Exception: Unknown policy attribute 'separator' supplied in policy, with value:/xFF.

 

When I write the policy as delimited, with ODOA as the delimiter,

 




 

 the mainframe file contains an extra line after each record.

 

When I write the file as "translate", as suggested by the MIM HelpDesk,

 

          

         

      

 

the extra lines are removed, but the characters xFF show up between files, if I send more than one.

 

Any suggestions?

If it is a fixed length record, can you just truncate the record to the proper size by using this policy?
