Running the configuration

The simple configuration described above is started from the command line or in a batch file on Windows systems using one of the following calls, where sos-berlin_demo_2_local is the name given to the configuration on saving:

...

• It is not necessary to specify a port here as JADE will automatically use the required value of 22 for SFTP unless specified otherwise.
• The new fragment will be addressed with the sftp_demo_sos-berlin_passname attribute.
• The Password element is not a direct descendant of the Authentication element as was the case with FTP - this allows the use of an alternative authentication method (key pair authentication, described in the Public / Private Key Authentication tutorial)

Profile element

...

• generate the new Profile by duplicating the ftp_server_2_local element using the XML Editor's Copy and Paste functions, which are available using the XML Editor's context menu.,
• delete the FTPFragmentRef element and add a new SFTPFragmentRef element,
• select the SFTPFragment as the value for the ref attribute of the SFTPFragmentRef element.

The completed The we second profile in our examples settings file, sftp_server_2_local_pass, which is quite similar to the ftp_server_2_local profile used in the previous example.

As the new profile name suggests, the SFTP protocol is used in this profile and authentication is by user/password. Key pair authentication is described later in this series of articles.

Example

The profile is included in the jade_settings_windows.ini file as follows:

[sftp_server_2_local_pass]
;;
 operation              = copy
;;
 source_host            = test.sos-berlin.com
 source_protocol        = sftp
 source_ssh_auth_method = password
 source_port            = 22
 source_user            = demo
 source_password        = demo
 source_dir             = /
;;
 target_host            = localhost
 target_protocol        = local
 target_dir             = ${USERPROFILE}\jade_demo\a

profile is shown below:

Running the configuration

The profile is started from a Windows system by entering the following at Then call this profile by entering the following in the Windows command line:

jade.cmd -settings="%USERPROFILE%\jade_demo\jade_settings.inisos-berlin_demo_2_local.xml" -profile="sftp_server_2_local_pass"

...

As with the FTP transfer profile, JADE will log onto the remote server and download all the files in the source_dir folder before stopping. Again, six files will be downloaded.
