Complex example: Batch FTP

This example shows how to retrieve files from several remote hosts to a central system in batch mode.

User GWIL on SYSNAM03 wants to do the following steps:

  1. Retrieve files from hosts SYSNAMRS (RS/6000®) and MVAX (VAX).
  2. After retrieving the file from SYSNAMRS, transfer the file to SYSNAM02 (another system) using FTP.
  3. From SYSNAM02, send the file to SYSNAM14 using TCP/IP.
