Hi, My requirement here is to transfer an output seq file to another server. What is the effective way to do this ? Any suggestions pls..

My job is simple... it is creating a small seqential file as target and now I want this to be transferred to another server, possibly in the same job. I think, I can use FTP stage but I require a copy of the file in my DS Server also. Can I do this using an after job shell command? If yes, can somebody advise?

Using "ftp" would be the simplest method. You can use a copy stage to create 2 outputs in your job, one going to FTP and the other to a local output file. Or create the output file and then use an after-job call or a script to FTP that file to the remote machine.

Can we do this in a single call (shell command) without creating any scripts?

Yes, it can be done. FTP is one of those tricky commands, as it takes several lines of input. I've found that each UNIX implementation has a slightly different syntax or method of doing this. I would use google and your flavor to find examples.
