Properties¶

Property	Description
Batch Size	The maximum number of files to put in each iteration
Conflict Resolution Strategy	Indicates what should happen when a file with the same name already exists in the output directory
Create Missing Directories	If true, then missing destination directories will be created. If false, flowfiles are penalized and sent to failure.
Directory	The network folder to which files should be written. This is the remaining relative path after the share: \hostnameshare[dir1dir2]. You may use expression language.
Domain	The domain used for authentication. Optional, in most cases username and password is sufficient.
Hostname	The network host to which files should be written.
Password	The password used for authentication. Required if Username is set.
Share	The network share to which files should be written. This is the “first folder”after the hostname: \hostname[share]dir1dir2
Share Access Strategy	Indicates which shared access are granted on the file during the write. None is the most restrictive, but the safest setting to prevent corruption.
Temporary Suffix	A temporary suffix which will be apended to the filename while it’s transfering. After the transfer is complete, the suffix will be removed.
Username	The username used for authentication. If no username is set then anonymous authentication is attempted.
enable-dfs	Enables accessing Distributed File System (DFS) and following DFS links during SMB operations.
smb-dialect	The SMB dialect is negotiated between the client and the server by default to the highest common version supported by both end. In some rare cases, the client-server communication may fail with the automatically negotiated dialect. This property can be used to set the dialect explicitly (e.g. to downgrade to a lower version), when those situations would occur.
timeout	Timeout for read and write operations.
use-encryption	Turns on/off encrypted communication between the client and the server. The property’s behavior is SMB dialect dependent: SMB 2.x does not support encryption and the property has no effect. In case of SMB 3.x, it is a hint/request to the server to turn encryption on if the server also supports it.

Relationships¶

Name	Description
failure	Files that could not be written to the output network path for some reason are transferred to this relationship
success	Files that have been successfully written to the output network path are transferred to this relationship
