SFTP issues
Hi All,
To transfer the files, from one server to another through SFTP, i am using below code in my script.
Code:
 
cur_dt=$1
echo "cd /inbox/" >> SFTP.txt  # folder of traget server
echo "mput /opt/myfile/inbox/*_${cur_dt}_*.* " >> SFTP.txt # to get files from /opt/myfile for given date and transfer to target
sftp -B SFTP.txt user@server >> FileTransfer.log

I have 3 problems here.
1. The log file is contains all information produce by sftp command. For example, if one file is 149 MB in size, the log file will show following information about that file.
Code:
 
ABC.txt  | 8.8 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:01:35 |   5%
 ABC.txt  |  19 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:01:27 |  11%
 ABC.txt  |  28 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:01:21 |  18%
 ABC.txt  |  39 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:01:14 |  24%
 ABC.txt  |  47 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:01:08 |  31%
 ABC.txt  |  58 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:01:02 |  37%
 ABC.txt  |  67 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:55 |  44%
 ABC.txt  |  77 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:49 |  50%
 ABC.txt  |  86 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:42 |  57%
 ABC.txt  |  97 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:36 |  63%
 ABC.txt  | 106 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:29 |  70%
 ABC.txt  | 116 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:23 |  76%
 ABC.txt  | 125 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:16 |  83%
 ABC.txt  | 135 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:10 |  89%
 ABC.txt  | 144 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:03 |  96%
 ABC.txt  | 149 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:40 | 100%

I have total 96 files, and for each file, sftp command output as above in log file, which looks weired. Instead for each file, i need only
Code:
ABC.txt  | 149 MB | 1.5 MB/s | ETA: 00:00:40 | 100%

2. As given above i am using mput /opt/myfile/inbox. But there are more than one inbox folder with number. ie inbox0, inbox1...inboxn which is dynamic.
How to get all files from all inbox folder? I have tried using
Code:
/opt/myfile/inbox*/*_${cur_dt}_*.*

But it did not work.
3. How can i verify, the total number of files in source and target are same after SFTP?

Can someone help me on this?
Regards,
ACE
