10.7 Ingest From Ethernet (FTP Server)

10.7.1 Uploading Files to a Remote ShowVault via FTP

This section describes how to send package files from a local Linux machine to a networked
ShowVault for ingest.

Open a new terminal window and follow these steps:

Type: cd <foldername>/ and then press Enter.

The descriptor (folder name) is the name of the folder that contains the package files

that are sent to the networked ShowVault for ingest.

◦ An example would be to type cd dcp_package/ and then press Enter.

◦ The folder called dcp_package contains the source material to be sent to the

ShowVault for ingest.


Note: For this example, it is assumed that the movie package is in a folder called dcp_package.

In practice, the folder name can be whatever the user decides to name it.

Type: (IP address) and then press Enter.

The descriptor is the IP address of the ShowVault to send the package files to.

An example would be to type: 192.168.100.50 and then press Enter.

User will be prompted for a login name and password for the networked ShowVault.

Type the following:

◦ Name: ingest and then press Enter.

◦ Password: ingest and then press Enter.

This login will automatically put the user into the /data/incoming/ folder on the destination

ShowVault. This will bring the user to the FTP command prompt: ftp >


From here type the following in the terminal window:

Type: > prompt off // - this command turns off prompting for each individual file to be

copied.

Type: > mput * // - this command puts all files from the source directory specified

above (dcp_package/) into the /data/incoming/ directory of the destination ShowVault.
