Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Best way to transfer files to remote FTPS server instead of local FTPS server Post 302999566 by waavman on Thursday 22nd of June 2017 02:12:03 PM

Hi rbatte1
I think the issue I have is different from what you have addressed here.
I am absolutely not concerned about how the clients in Site B access my files from Site A. They are already doing so and they will continue to do so. So there is not changed on their end.

My primary question is
Which of these two options is a faster way for me to transfer files from my Application server which is creating the files to remote Site A in the same datacenter.

Option (1) FTP files from my application server (using scp/rcp/rsync/lftp) to a remote FTPS server in site A which has a storage volume XXX mounted locally on the FTPS server at mount point /a/b/c
Option (2) Mount the FTPS storage volume XXX onto local mount point /x/y/z of my local Application server as well as mount the same storage volume XXX onto local mount point /a/b/c of the remote FTPS server and then Application server just copies the files it generates (cp) to Unix directory /x/y/z and so files are automatically available on remote FTPS server in directory /a/b/c

thanks

NAME
nwfsctrl - Perform server command SYNOPSIS
nwfsctrl [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -p ncpfs path ] -c | -o | -[f]d nwfsctrl [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -p ncpfs path ] server command DESCRIPTION
nwfsctrl performs command on server. OPTIONS
-h With -h nwfsctrl prints a little help text. -S server is the name of the server you want to use. -U user user is the user name to use for login. To set the server's time, you need supervisor privileges. -P password password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwfstime prompts for a password. -n -n should be given if no password is required for the login. As you need supervisor privileges for setting the date and time, this option is probably not used very often. -C By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C. -o Open bindery. -c Close bindery. -d Down fileserver. This command will complain if there are open files on server. -fd Down fileserver, regardless of opened files. load module options... Load module module with options options... on server. Program will complain if module is already loaded. unload module Unload module module from server. Program will complain if module is not loaded. mount volume Mount volume volume. dismount volume Dismount volume volume. If there are open files on volume, server displays prompt on console. You must go to the server (or telnet/xcon- sole) and hit Y or N to get beyond this point). set variable = value Set server settable variable variable to value value. open bindery Open bindery. close bindery Close bindery. enable login Enable login to file server. disable login Disable login to file server. disable tts Disable TTS. This probably does not work on Netware 4.11. enable tts Enable TTS. This probably does not work on Netware 4.11. BUGS
Other commands are not written yet (volume, clear connection ...) CREDITS
