Hi Sanjay,

The indicator files are generated for event based Scheduling. Its Zero byte file created on Unix. Once the session reads this files its get deleted. You can use
command touch <Indicator_file_Name> at presession or post session script.

Indicator files are used when u want to start execution of session after some event occurs like when the source flat files is ftped on the server and u want the session to start. Than after ftping the source files user will generate Indicator file. As soon as session sees Indicator file it starts running the session.

I hope this is what u want. If u need more clarification let me know.
