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 |
