These settings pertain to the following Destination types:
To access these settings:
Destination - General tab |
Description |
---|---|
Bucket Name (Amazon S3 hosts) |
The name of the Bucket where the files are located on the Amazon S3 host. |
Container (Azure Blob Storage hosts) |
The container name where the files are located on the host. Note: Empty directory creation is not a supported function of Azure Blob Storage, therefore empty folders cannot be uploaded. |
Document Library (SharePoint hosts) |
The library where the files are located on the host |
Folder(s) |
Folder name or path to save files on the remote host. Macros are allowed in this field. For local filesystem hosts: Do not use full UNC paths. To use a remote filesystem by UNC or mounted drive letter, first add the host as a Share. If you use a UNC, MOVEit Automation attempts to find a matching Share host and prompts you to use it. |
Use relative subdirectories |
If one or more source elements have the Include Subdirectories option selected, files found in subdirectories of the source folder are uploaded to the same subdirectory they were found in on the destination host. |
Create directories if necessary |
Selected: If the directory named in the path does not exist, MOVEit Automation creates the directory (or the relative subdirectory if Use relative subdirectories is checked). Not selected: If the server directory does not exist, the transfer fails. |
Compress each file (zip format) |
Compresses each file individually. Uses the original filename appended with .zip. For example, To zip multiple files together, use the built-in script Zip Advanced. |
Use original filenames |
The name under which the file was saved on the source. If not checked, uses the name you define. The name can contain macros. |
If a file of the same name already exists: |
|
*Azure Blob Storage
Azure Blob Storage supports Block, Page, and Append Blob-types.
MOVEit Automation supports downloading of all three types. New files in MOVEit Automation are always uploaded as Block Blob.
MOVEit Automation can overwrite an existing Page Blob file and retain the same blob type.
Append Blobs cannot be overwritten. Attempts to overwrite Append Blobs in MOVEit Automation fail with this error: The blob type is invalid for this operation.
