Transfer file using CIFS

[Former Member]

Hello,

I try to implement file to file scenario.

I need to use in receiver side with CIFS method to transfer the file.

I am looking for the way to use with this protocol in the XI server.

Hello,

I solved the problem.

I map the share folder in the remote domain like all the drive in XI machine.

Hi,

I assume your XI/PI system and Target/Source file system are having diffrent OS i.e PI is on Unix and Target/Source system is on Windows (this is the most ideal situation to go for CIFS). To implement the CIFS you can employ the following.

1) Create a share of the Target/Source Location in Target/Source machine.

2) Create a user who can acces the location with required previleges.

3) Create the cifsmount of that location on to the PI system

4) Map the created user to pi user <SID>adm (<SID> is you PI system ID)

Thus when xi tries to send/read data to/from the location it uses the crednetials of user you created and logs in to windows system and writes/reads files.

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.

Our xi and the destination are run on the same OS but each of them is under different remote domain.

Any idea how to solve this issue?

I haven't heard CIFS supported for file transfer. U may use NFS for saving the file on the network file system, then trigger some script as OS command to start utilizing the CIFS functionalities. Just a speculation :).
