Specifies the path to an XML file holding the file transfer configuration. Typically the configuration is managed with the JOC Cockpit inventory, see JS7 - File Transfer Configuration. For JS7 - File Transfer Deployment the configurations are mapped to JS7 - Job Resources.

./config/yade.xml

jobResourceVariable( 'YADE', 'yadeXml' )

profile

Specifies the name of the profile holding the file transfer configuration. The profile is a section in the XML file transfer configuration that specifies the source and target of a transfer.

Transfer Options

source_dir

Specifies the the source directory of a transfer.

The argument overwrites an existing source directory setting in the YADE XML configuration and is applied to any source protocol such as local, ftp, sftp etc.

source_excluded_directories

Specifies a number of source directories that should be excluded from recursive file transfer.

The argument overwrites an existing excluded source directory setting in the YADE XML configuration and is applied to any source protocol such as local, ftp, sftp etc.

source_file_path

Specifies the path to an individual file that will be selected for transfer.

The argument overwrites an existing source file setting in the YADE XML configuration and is applied to any source protocol such as local, ftp, sftp etc.

source_file_spec

Specifies a regular expression to select a number of files for transfer, for example:

• The "\.csv$" argument value will transfer files with the extension .csv.
• The "^ProductDemo_\d{2,4}" argument value will transfer files with names starting with ProductDemo_ followed by 2-4 digits.

The argument overwrites an existing source file specification setting in the YADE XML configuration and is applied to any source protocol such as local, ftp, sftp etc.

\.csv$

^ProductDemo_\d{2,4}

source_file_list

Specifies the path to a file that holds the list of file names or paths that will be selected for transfer.

• Example: the /home/sos/transfer.txt argument value specifies a file with the following content:
  • /var/transfer/file1.csv
  • /home/sos/file2.txt
• At run-time the files specified in transfer.txt will be transferred.

The argument overwrites an existing source file list setting in the YADE XML configuration and is applied to any source protocol such as local, ftp, sftp etc.

target_dir

Specifies the the target directory of a transfer.

The argument overwrites an existing target directory setting in the YADE XML configuration and is applied to any target protocol such as local, ftp, sftp etc.

Processing Options

settings_replacer_case_sensitive 

Specifies if case-sensitivitiy should be considered when replacing variables included in a YADE XML configuration:

• The true value (default) performs replacements with case-sensitive consideration of variable names.
• The false value performs replacements with case-insensitive consideration variable names.

Variables in a YADE XML configuration are specified like this: ${variable}.

settings_replacer_keep_unresolved

Specifies if variables included in a YADE XML configuration that cannot be replaced by workflow variables should remain unresolved for replacement by OS environment variables.

When operated from a job, then variables in a YADE XMl configuration are

• first replaced by workflow variables,
• then replaced by OS environment variables.

The default value of the option is true wich allows replacements from both workflow variables and OS environment variables.

parallelism

Specifies if transfer of a number of files should be performed in parallel.

By default files are transferred sequentially, corresponding to use the 1 argument value. Higher values specify the number of parallel files in transfer.
