Input Type

The agent can act on Input Type bytearray or MultiForwardingUDR. By default, the agent expects bytarrays. If nothing else is stated, the documentation refers to bytearrays. For Input Type MultForwardingUDR, refer to 9.34.2.3 FTPS Forwarding Agent MultiForwardingUDR Input for more information. 

Directory

Enter the absolute path of the remote host's target directory of where you want to place the forwarded files. The path can also be specified relative to the home directory of the user's account.

The files are temporarily stored in the automatically created subdirectory DR_TMP_DIR in the target directory. When an endBatch message is received, the files are moved from the subdirectory to the target directory.

Create Directory

Select this checkbox to create the directory, or the directory structure, of the path that you specify in the field Directory.

The directories are created when the workflow is executed.


Compression

Select the compression type to determine if the agent should compress the target files before storage or not:

  • No Compression - The agent does not compress the files.

  • Gzip - The agent compresses the files using gzip.

    Note
    titleNote!

    No extra extension is appended to the target filenames even if compression is selected.

If there is no write access to the target directory and, hence, a temporary directory cannot be created, the agent can move the file to a temporary file that is stored directly in the target directory. After the whole file has been transferred, and the endBatch message message has been received, the temporary file will be is renamed.

The temporary filename is unique for every execution of the workflow. It consists of a workflow and agent ID, and as well as a file number.
