Version 5.2 of the SSH Tectia client/server solution contains new commands for secure file transfer on the SSH Tectia Client side (on Unix and Windows). The new commands benefit especially cross-platform file transfers to and from mainframe datasets.
The new commands for the sftpg3 command-line client are:
append: this command appends the specified local file to the remote file.
Syntax:
append [options...] srcfile [dstfile]
lappend: this command appends the specified remote file to the local file.
Syntax:
lappend [options...] srcfile [dstfile]
break: this command interrupts batch file execution.
continue: this command continues interrupted batch file execution.
sget: this command transfers files one by one from the remote end to the local end.
Syntax:
sget [options...] srcfile [dstfile]
As the user can define a new name for the destination file, it is easier to transfer files for example between platforms that support different character sets in filenames.
sput: this command transfers files one by one from the local end to the remote end.
Syntax:
sput [options...] srcfile [dstfile]
site: this command can be used to define the mainframe dataset and other additional file transfer parameters separately for each server.
Syntax:
site [ none | name1=value1 name2=value2...
]
lsite: this command can be used to define the mainframe dataset and other additional file transfer parameters on local files and datasets.
Syntax:
lsite [ none | name1=value1 name2=value2...
]
