An Example Transfer Profile
A profile definition for Server to Server transfer, from a sftp to a ftp server:
[ftp_server_2_server] ssh_auth_method=password source_user=kb source_password=***** source_ssh_auth_method=password source_host=wilma.sos source_protocol=sftp source_port=22 target_user=test target_password=***** target_host=8of9.sos target_protocol=ftp target_port=21 file_spec=^.*\.txt$ operation=copy
In this example all files with the file name extension ".txt" should be transfered from the server "wilma" via sftp to the server 8of9 by ftp. the folders are not explicitely specified and therefore the "home" folders of the user are selected.
Profile fragments
To make the profile more reusable and readable it is possible to reuse profiles snipets in the way like this:
[wilma]
user=kb
password=*****
ssh_auth_method=password
host=wilma.sos
protocol=sftp
port=22
[8of9]
user=test
password=*****
host=8of9.sos
protocol=ftp
port=21
[globals]
log_filename=$\{TEMP\}/sosftphistory.log
The profiles for wilma and 8of9 are defined only once. They could be used as many time as needed in different transfer profiles. There is a "globals" profile as well.
Define Profiles using the include directive
Now we will specify the transfer profile again:
[ftp_server_2_server] source_include=wilma target_include=8of9 operation=copy file_spec=^.*\.txt$ [ftp_more] target_include=wilma source_include=8of9 operation=move file_spec=^.*\.(txt|pdf|dat)$ source_folder=/outbound/daily target_folder=/inbound/transfer
The "include" parameter will include the named profiles in the order they are defined. In the first example wilma will be included as source and in the second example as target. The "globals" profile is included automatically, no need to specifiy it in an include parameter.
The profiles must be defined in the same settings file.
For infos about the parameters see the parameter documentation on jadeParameterReference.
