Input Parameters

Local file

Specifies the full path for the local file to transfer. For example: C:\\IT PAM\\import\\script_ora1.sh. This option is unavailable if you select the Is inline data check box.

Is inline data

When selected, transfers text stored with the operator in the library. Click the Inline data field to enter data.

Inline data

Click this field to open the Inline data editor where you can enter the data to transfer.

Remote file

Specifies the path for the file on the remote FTP host. For example: /tmp/IT PAM/scripts/script_ora1.sh. If you do not specify a file name, the operator saves the file using the same name as the copied file. The location must be valid at run time on the touchpoint running the File Transfer operators.

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.

Binary transfer

Uses the FTP binary mode for transferring binary files. For example, if selected, uses the following types of files:

Use Secure FTP (SFTP)

Select this check box to open 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, and are much less vulnerable to third-party interception.

Specify an optional SITE command

Select this check box 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.

Site parameters

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