Aim:
- Creating a file transferTransfers files from one computer to another. A particular Automation Engine object type (FileTransfer object).
- Creating a wildcard file transfer
An integral part of processing is the transfer of files. The Automation EngineThis component drives an Automation Engine system and consists of different types of server processes. therefore provides an extra object typeAn individual object is provided for the individual activities: There are User, UserGroup, Notification, Cockpit, CodeTable, Documentation, Event, Agent, FileTransfer, Group, Include, Job, Workflow, Calendar, Login, Client, RemoteTaskManager, Schedule, Script, Server, Sync, Variable and TimeZone objects for this activityAn activity (or task) is an entity that can be planned, assigned to a user or a team and tracked with respect to their plan and state (started, cancelled, suspended, completed).. A statisticsThis is a list of a task's previous runs. overview is available for file transfers (as for Job objects) so that the individual executions can be traced.
We are now going to create a file transfer. Prepare several files that can be transferred to a different computer.
Let's now take a look at the content of the FileTransfer object. You already know many tabs from the Job object. It applies for file transfers as well as all other object types that the predefined default values are suitable. We are now going to define the file that should be transferred and the location to which it should be sent.
The file transfer we created transfers one file. If you want to transfer several files with one FileTransfer object, you can use wildcards. In doing so, files sharing the same start characters can be transferred. Let's create such a file transfer:
Execute the two FileTransfer objects individually. The first file transfer is displayed in the Activity Window as an individual taskAn executable object that is running. Tasks are also referred to as activities.. As the second FileTransfer object transfers several files, each file is displayed individually and you can view multiple tasks. Read the statistics and the reports of both FileTransfer objects after the file transfer.
