Hi Priyankar, Good Morning!
I may not be able to answer the question right, but...
- when a file listener picks a file it has two configurable options post processing the file
- either keep or delete
- keep the file will be moved to completed folder
- delete the processed file will be deleted.
- either keep or delete
- though the source location specified is the same for file listener running on Node 2 would not pick the same file to re-process the file that has been processed by Node 1 file listener.
Please share your comments/thoughts/observations, Thank you!

Hi Team,
I have similar issue. File listener is configured in all nodes and I am seeing multiple files with the same name(Original file appended with some numbers) in the completed folder. As the file size is large, is the second node picking the file before the first node completes its processing?
Do I need to Check "Lock Temporary File Names?" checkbox or increase Polling Interval. Please suggest.

Hi Priyankar,
Your question is not clear, in a multi node environment do you want a specific listener to read a specific file? To my understanding once the file is picked up then it will not get reprocessed by the other listener and a file (FileName + UniqueId + FileExtension) will get added into the completed folder as per your configuration.
Thanks,

Hi Mukul,
I have a file listener configured in all nodes. It is picking the files properly and after processing placing the files in Completed folder. But, in Completed folder I am seeing the same file multiple times.
EX:
File1.txt after processing is placed in the completed folder multiple times as File1.1410000001189654.txt, File1.1410000001195744.txt
But this is not happening always. Please let me know why it is showing multiple times.
