You can use an FTP server to automatically transfer the data export files that the ssadbcopy utility generates. You can use automatic file transfer mode if you transfer the files to target Data Vault systems on UNIX. To transfer files to a target Data Vault system on Microsoft Windows, use the manual file transfer mode.
If you specify the automatic file transfer mode in the ssadbcopy command, the utility transfers the following files from the source system to the target system:
Data Files
The utility transfers all of the data files identified in the data file text file to the compressed data file directory on the target system. You specify the target location when you run the ssadbcopy command.
TAR archive file
The utility transfers all of the files in the TAR achive to the target TAR directory on the target system. You specify the target directory in the FTP.ini file.
