Transferring Files File names are taken as they are presented, as opposed to the directory commands described in previous sections (directory commands which preface (./) to the file name). Directory commands are always dealing with POSIX files, so prefacing a (./) is helpful to the user. When transferring files, files prefaced with a (.) or (/) will reference a file in the POSIX name space as opposed to the MPE/iX name space.
NOTE If the path specified for the source file does not exist on the target system, the target file must be specified in the FTP/iX file transfer command. If the target file is not specified, FTP/iX will attempt to create the file with the path specified. If the target file is to be copied to the current working directory, only the filename (not the full path) needs to be specified.
Example 1: This example demonstrates a FTP data transfer from a file in a MPE group to a POSIX directory.
