6. File transfer via ftp

Your retrieved files are transferred to NILU via ftp.

This is set-up under "2. Logging in and account settings".

When retrieving data you can set it up so that the data are transferred automatically over to NILU.

This is done when retrieving data for FLEXPART.

You can also transfer files manually by using the ECtrans association specified under "2. Logging in and account settings".

To transfer one file:

ectrans -remote nina@genericSftp -source ectmp://sbc/oper_2012_07/EN12070600

(using your directory, and your ECtrans association, i.e. change nina to your setting.)

To transfer several files use a script containing the following:

#!/bin/ksh
for f in `els ectmp:/sbc/oper_2012_07 | grep EN1207150*  | awk '{print $9}'`
do
echo $f
ectrans -remote nina@genericSftp -source ectmp:/sbc/oper_2012_07/$f
done 

(using your directory, and your ECtrans association, i.e. change nina to your setting.)

This one transfers all files on the 15th July 2012 (EN1207150*).

NB: You need that extra 0 after 15 to get all files on only the 15th, if you don't have the extra 0 you will get all files from the 10th to the 20th.
