Welcom to the VMS forum!

Would You mind to tell us, what does not work, how doesn't it work, which VMS version, which TCPIP software and version ?

Here on my ancient VMS 7.3-1 with TCPIP 5.4 it looks like:

sftp avmp01
Connecting to avmp01...
sftp> cd scratch/tmp
sftp> mput fw*.zip
Uploading fwAtlas-2.0.2.zip to /DISK$HUBER/HUBER/SCRATCH/tmp/fwAtlas-2.0.2.zip
fwAtlas-2.0.2.zip 100% 22KB 21.6KB/s 00:00
Uploading fwFSMAtlas-3.2.0.zip to /DISK$HUBER/HUBER/SCRATCH/tmp/fwFSMAtlas-3.2.0.zip

hi,

you have'nt said or shown exactly what did'nt work, can you post up any failure messages you got or retry with -v to get the verbose output.

problem is it is not ftp the file to unix box if you give * in the middle of file

Re: could please help me in sftp mulitple files

Joseph Huber_1 — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 10:44:55 GMT

So Your problem is:
a wildcard "*" mput is doing nothing, but mput with a single file is working ?
I can't reproduce the problem, it works VMS yo VMS and also Linux to VMS.

What are Your systems? both source and destination VMS ?

Re: could please help me in sftp mulitple files

652 — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 10:46:46 GMT

source is VMS and the destination is UNIX

652,

>>>

<<<

WHICH unix (and version)

Unix <> Unix <> Unix.

There are MANY Unixes, with similarities, differences, AND incompatibilities...

Proost.

Have one on me.

jpe

Ah yes, now I see it:
mput wildcard from VMS to Linux does not work, without any message from the linux side.
same with a wildcard mget from the linux side.

It works if You specify the VMS filename including version like
"mput f*.txt;*"

Probably this behaviour is a result of the SSH shell command issued from sftp.

(sftp,scp) are crooks ;-)

I exactly don't know the unix box present over there. But it was working when i used multinet.

Now due to itanium we are not using multinet and i'm facing this problem

Re: could please help me in sftp mulitple files

652 — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 11:04:41 GMT

yes what you said is correct.

but i don't want the file to be saved with version number

Re: could please help me in sftp mulitple files

652 — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 11:09:04 GMT

could you please suggest me if there is any way i can sftp the without version number

Re: could please help me in sftp mulitple files

652 — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 12:02:31 GMT

so this issue can not resolved

I'm not in a position to request it from HP,
but if You have a service contract, file a request to HP to correct this behaviour ...

Meanwhile, on the Linux/Unix system, it needs a rename step. Iam not quite fit in shell syntax, something like
rename ";1" "" *
should do it.

and what seems to work for me from VMS to Linux:

$ scp *.txt "linuxnode:sompath/"

This copies files without ;version on Linux side.

<<

extract ? what do You mean.

scp does the same as sftp, just different syntax.
Do You mean f*_035.txt instead *.txt ?
*.txt just was my example.
