Delete Remote Directory Properties

Remote path

Specifies the path for the directory to delete on the remote host. For example: /temp/IT PAM/scripts. The specified directory must be empty for the File Transfer operators to complete this operator.

Remote host

Specifies the IP address or FTP URL for the remote host. For an FTP site on your company intranet, you can specify the server name (//servername) for the FTP site.

By default, FTP sites use port 21. However, you can assign a private port to an FTP site. Private ports range from 49152 to 65535. To specify a private FTP port, add a colon (:) and then a private port number to the end of the address. For example, the following specifies port 50021 on a remote FTP server:

172.24.36.107:50021

Remote user ID

Specifies a user ID to access the remote FTP host.

Remote user password

Specifies the password to access the remote FTP host.

Use Secure FTP (SFTP)

Opens a secure FTP (SFTP) session. SFTP is similar to FTP, but unlike FTP, the entire session is encrypted. No passwords are sent in clear text form, so they are much less vulnerable to third-party interception.

Specify an optional SITE command

Specifies to use the SITE command to invoke services that are specific to the host system. Then use the Site parameters field to specify a CA Process Automation expression that returns parameters for the SITE command.

Remove all files/subdirectories under the target directory

This option is used to delete a directory that is not empty. If this check box is selected, all the directories under the specified directory are deleted including the specified directory. If this check box is unchecked, any attempt to delete a directory that is not empty results in service operator failure.

Site Parameters

Enter a CA Process Automation expression that returns parameters for the SITE command.
