Use Case
Consider the situation in an organization where security restrictions prohibit direct file transfer both between parts of the organization network and the Internet and between different organization locations.

- Whilst any protocol can be used for the transfer stage from the jump host to the target, transfer from the source to the jump host must be carried out using SFTP.
- Atomic transfer is the default mode for both stages of a jump host transfer operation. This means that if a file transfer error occurs in either stage of the operation, none of the files that would otherwise have been selected will be transferred. Files already transferred to either the jump host or the target server will be deleted.

Integration with the JADE Background Service
- The JADE Background Service is not able to directly access the JADE Client on the jump server. This means while the Background Service can access the transfer history and log files of the local JADE Client, it is not able to access log or file transfer information from the JADE Client on the jump host.
However the originating JADE Client (i.e. the current example, the client on the source server) receives feedback from the client on the jump host containing information about whether transfer from the jump host to the target server was successful.
