FTP Server

You can set up the agent to run as an FTP server.

To configure the agent as an FTP server

  1. Stop the agent.
  2. Edit the agentparm.txt file.

    Note: For more information about configuring the agent as an FTP server, see the CA Workload Automation Agent for UNIX, Linux, or Windows Implementation Guide.

  3. Start the agent.

To use the agent as an FTP server, set up local security on the agent.

Each FTP user ID and password must be defined on the agent. Use the ftpusrcfg utility located in the installation directory. If you set up the agent as an FTP server during installation, you have already defined one FTP user ID and password.

On UNIX, enter the following:

ftpusrcfg -a|-d|-m|-l userid password

On Windows, enter the following:

ftpusrcfg.bat -a|-d|-m|-l userid password
-a

Adds a new user ID.

-d

Deletes the specified user ID.

-m

Changes the password for the specified user ID.

-l

Lists all entries in the ftpuser.txt file.

Note: For more information about configuring an SSL FTP, see the CA Workload Automation Agent for UNIX, Linux, or Windows Implementation Guide.
