How to enable file transfer feature in ITM 6.2.2 FP 2

One of the coolest and long awaited feature introduced in ITM 6.2.2 FP2 is the file transfer feature. Using this, you should be able to transfer monitoring scripts, dependency files and config files down to the monitored agent. ITM provides necessary CLI to transfer files to/from the agent using "tacmd getfile" and "tacmd putfile".


However this feature is not enabled in the TEMS by default. TO enable this feature, you need to do the following steps.


1. Edit $CANDLEHOME/config/*_ms_*.config

2. Add the following enviornment variable at the end of the config file.

KT1_TEMS_SECURE='Y'

3. Restart the TEMS.

4. Now run "tacmd login" followed by "tacmd getfile" or "tacmd putfile".


Hope this helps.
