How to use that option in channel configuration of File Adapter.

OS commands are usually placed in a path on the XI server itself. If XI is on UNIX shell scripts are used, while if it is on a Windows server .bat files are used. From your post, it looks like you are trying to execute a batch file on your local system.

Not sure if it is possible to execute such OS commands out of your local system.

You should probably could place the OS command script on a server path.

There are two ways to use the Os command in the file adapter.
Lets talk about the sender File Adapter.
First: Run operative system Before Message Processing
Whenever any operation needs to be performed uppon the source file Just before XI picks it up.
e.g. Calculate any hash code, backup the file to a given location, create a log at os level, etc...
... After Message Processing
After Xi has processed the message, you can trigger a new os level command:
e.g. Trigger a mail, check if the archiving was successful, etc.

Theres no default path, you assign the desired path in the Comm Channel configuration.
