When a file is sftp from one server to another, how will one know if the transfer is successful?

[Stefan Farrelly · Accepted solution]

When sftp successfully completes the transfer it give this output;

sftp> put t.tar
t.tar 100% 10KB 0.9MB/s 00:00
sftp> exit


Showing it transferred 100% (aok) and how big the file was and the transfer rate.

[T G Manikandan]

you would get an output like

Uploading utlrp.log to 100%


But you can do a cksum at the remote site to find that the files have got tranmitted successfully.

[RAC_1]

sftp -v "filetocopy" host@user1:/path_where_to_copy"

It will give 100 % when done.

Same thing for sfto prompt.
