Using Cloverleaf for FTP

[Manny Zachodin]

We have a process that runs under windows scheduler to FTP files to another site.  I would like to use Cloverleaf’s platform to do the FTP (use the scheduler, notification etc.). Can I use one THREAD only to do the job or I need two Threads (one to read the files and the other to FTP)? Thanks for your input.

Yes, you need to have two threads.  The protocol on the inbound thread would be either a UPOC or Fileset-Local.  The outbound thread would be Fileset-FTP.  You could do some tricky mumbo-jumbo to exec the ftp within the inbound-TPS and avoid using 2 threads, but it would not be a good idea.

I took your advice and it is working well with the 2 threads.
