Use Jobs to configure secure, automated handling of files. Reflection Gateway monitors the content of a directory and initiates an ordered sequence of events when it finds new files or updated files in the scanned directory. Changed files can be the result of Reflection Gateway Transfer Site uploads or any other process that moves and modifies files.
Monitor directories on any added SFTP file server.
Create a customized, ordered sequence of Job actions to handle new and updated files. Actions can include:
Moving or copying files to any added server.
Executing any command supported on the server where files first arrive, or on subsequent servers to which files are moved. For example, you can use system commands to delete or rename files, or run a command-line executable such as a virus scanner.
If any action in your sequence fails, no further actions take place. This ensures that the processes you configure to secure your site are successfully completed on all files.
Configure email notification to alert system administrators when Job actions fail or succeed.
Specify which directory to scan and whether or not to include subdirectories.
Define the window of time that the directory will be monitored. For example, Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM.
Set the scan interval to determine how frequently scans occur, for example every 30 minutes.
Specify which files in the directory should be acted on, for example all PDF files, or all files of a given size.
Specify the minimum number of files that must arrive before Job actions begin.
Set up File Server Groups to enable users to configure Jobs only on specific file servers.
