Here are 2 possible solutions :
Either you copy the file in a TMP folder on the remote system and you move them in the final destination folder after the transfer via a remote command.
or you transfer all your files and at the end you sftp a flag file (e.g. tsf.ok). The script on the remote server should check the flag exists before processing the files.

What is the best way for a script to run to monitor a directory for the presence of files and then perform a function afterwords? I was hoping to have it continually run and sleep until it detects that files are present in the directory, then break out of the loop and go on to the next step.

I'm am looking for a cheap way to trigger a script when a new file is written in a specific directory. AIX 5.3. It is a production system, so no kernel patching (i.e. inotify).
Filemon and audtiing are too expensive.

rpload(1) General Commands Manual rpload(1)
NAME
rpload - alpine remote data utility
SYNTAX
rpload [ -f ] [ -s trimSize ] -t Type -l Local_file -r Remote_folder
DESCRIPTION
Rpload may be used to convert local Alpine configuration files or address books into remote configurations or address books. It is
intended to be used by system administrators. Regular users should normally use the facilities provided within Alpine.
Local_file will usually be a user's alpine configuration file, and Remote_folder is the IMAP folder which will be used (with the help of
Alpine's -p, -P, and -x commands or PINECONF, PINERC, and PINERCEX environment variables) as the user's remote configuration folder. A
copy of Local_file will be placed in the folder with the correct header lines to satisfy Alpine.
-f Force the load even if the remote folder is in the wrong format. This will delete the contents of the folder so use it
carefully.
-s trimSize If the number of messages in the remote folder is more than one plus trimsize (one is for the header message), then
messages 2, 3, and so on will be deleted until there are only one plus trimsize messages left. If this option is not
set no trimming will be done.
-t Type The possible Types are pinerc, abook, and sig. (Sig is mostly obsolete. Literal signatures contained within the remote
pinerc should be used instead.)
-l Local_file The file on this system that is to be copied.
-r Remote_folder A remote folder name to be copied to. See the Alpine documentation for the syntax of a remote folder name. One exam-
ple is
{my.imap.server}remote_pinerc.
DIAGNOSTICS
Exit status is zero if all goes well, -1 otherwise.
