- Does the directory structure of the source dirs need to be preserved? i.e. when you want to "pick the zipped files from each sub-directory which are placed in SFTP server and move to different directory" as you said, will the files


##From SFTP location, we just need to pick up the zipped files from each sub-directory and move it to on different location as /other_place/zipped1.zip and other_place/zipped2.zip which is on unix environment.

If the latter, what should be done about identical filenames?

##This scenario is not applicable here as the zipped files will be differently named by the source system. I would get more info regarding this situation.

- What should be done about different versions? i.e. suppose there is a file

##If the same file is available in target location, then use the file in the source directorY AND leave the file in the target directory. The files which we are moving to is intermediate layer so the zipped will be completely moved from the target location to another server.

So once we have moved the zipped files to target location, then we need to check if each file within zipped file is not 0 kb and if we find a 0kb file then raise an email with some content.

libssh2_sftp_init

libssh2_sftp_init(3)						  libssh2 manual					      libssh2_sftp_init(3)

NAME

       libssh2_sftp_init - open SFTP channel for the given SSH session.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libssh2.h> #include <libssh2_sftp.h>

       LIBSSH2_SFTP * libssh2_sftp_init(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session);

DESCRIPTION

       session - Session instance as returned by libssh2_session_init_ex(3)

       Open  a	channel and initialize the SFTP subsystem. Although the SFTP subsystem operates over the same type of channel as those exported by
       the Channel API, the protocol itself implements its own unique binary packet protocol which must be managed with the libssh2_sftp_*()  fam-
       ily of functions. When an SFTP session is complete, it must be destroyed using the libssh2_sftp_shutdown(3) function.

RETURN VALUE

       A pointer to the newly allocated SFTP instance or NULL on failure.

ERRORS

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC -  An internal memory allocation call failed.

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket.

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT -

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL  - An invalid SFTP protocol response was received on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be
       returned by the server.

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN - Marked for non-blocking I/O but the call would block.
