File transfer from remote to local
Hi,
I came across the scenario, that I need to copy files from the remote server to my local. The files in the remote server are created by another job and its keep on generating the files in that remote folder.
We can't able to use SCP command and we're using SFTP to connect the server and mget to copy the files.
Once we copied the files we're giving rm command to wipe the directory of the remote server.
For example mget command moving 100 files and few more files are created in that folder bcoz of the job and while giving rm command it will remove the 100 files + newly created files from the remote server.
Is there any other best way to do this without losing the newly created files.
Thanks
Janarthan
