sftp output to file.
Hi friends,
How to log the STFP put command output to a file, please give me a solution to solve this problem.

This is the program..

Main File : cp_ftp_file.
Code:
send_file()
{
 sftp -b sftp_cmd_file_temp.txt ingrammicro@secure.streamliteinc.com 
}
echo 'Manifest FTP started....'
send_file
grep -ic "100" /app/csw/bin/ftp_output_log_IMP573 > /app/csw/bin/ftp_temp_IMP573

Batch File :sftp_cmd_file_temp.txt
Code:
progress
cd incoming/
put TestFiletest 
quit

OutPut:
Code:
Manifest FTP started....
sftp> progress
Progress meter enabled
sftp> cd incoming/
sftp> put TestFiletest 
Uploading TestFiletest to /Home/ingrammicro/incoming/TestFiletest
TestFiletest                              100%   74     0.1KB/s   00:00   
sftp> quit

Here the output is created manually by running the program in the unix prompt, i need to log this output to the file.

Hi frank_rizzo,
Thanks for your reply...

Manually output:
Code:
Manifest FTP started....
sftp> progress
Progress meter enabled
sftp> cd incoming/
sftp> put TestFiletest
Uploading TestFiletest to /Home/ingrammicro/incoming/TestFiletest
TestFiletest                                                                       100% 74 0.1KB/s 00:00
sftp> quit

Log file Output :
Code:
sftp> progress
Progress meter enabled
sftp> cd incoming/
sftp> put TestFiletest  
Uploading TestFiletest to /Home/ingrammicro/incoming/TestFiletest
sftp> quit

As you can see that second get command output line(which includes some statistics.. ie.. TestFiletest 100% 74 0.1KB/s 00:00) is missing.

Any way to include that statistics line into my log ?

your executing in batch mode so I believe the progress meter is disabled.

Hi frank_rizzo
I enabled the progress meter also, you clearly seen that line
(sftp> progress
Progress meter enabled)
in the output...
Any other way to include that statistics line into my log ?

no -b batch mode disables this by design.
