Introduction

The Operation element specifies the type of file transfer that is to be carried out. The Operation is a child element of the Profile and a required element.

Operation - the action YADE is to carry out

 The Operation elements that the YADE Client can carry out are defined as follows:

• Copy - duplicate the files from one location to another

• Move - duplicate the files from one location to another and then delete the original files

• Remove - delete files from a server

• GetList - obtain a file containing a list of file names

Specifying the Operation Element

An Operation element is required for each file transfer configuration.

In the JADE YADE XSD schema, the Operation is a child of the Profile element as is shown in the diagram hierarchy below:

• Profile
  • Operation
    • Copy
      • CopySource
      • CopyTarget
    • Move
      • MoveSource
      • MoveTarget
    • Remove
      • RemoveSource
    • GetList
      • GetListSource
  • Client (optional)
  • other optional siblings ...

The hierarchy also shows how the Operation element that is selected defines whether source and target elements require to be called as well as . These in turn define the transfer options that may be available.

An Operation element is required for each file transfer configuration.

Operation - the action JADE is to carry out

 The JADE Client can carry out a number of different operations.

These are:

...

The Operation element has a number of siblings (Client, JobScheduler and Notifications) which are optional children of the Profile element and are described in the Profile parameter reference article.

When the XML Editor is used, selection of an Operation will cause the Editor to automatically generate the required descendants necessary to specify the Operation.

For the Copy Operation these would be:

• Copy
  • CopySource
    
    • CopySourceFragmentRef
      • *FragmentRef (contains the reference to the Fragment to be used, where * defines the protocol to be used)
    • SourceFileOptions
      • Selection
  • CopyTarget
    • CopyTargetFragmentRef
    • Directory
