About Copying Files
The Copy File menus are a series of panels that collect information used for copying files between nodes. You can use the following four screens to build a COPY Process:
| Screen Name | Description |
|---|---|
| COPY FILE BETWEEN NODES Menu | Specifies the sending and receiving nodes of the COPY and the submission parameters for your COPY Process. |
| Security Override Menu | Collects information about userid, password, and accounting data. This optional panel is displayed only if you request it on the first panel. |
| SENDING FILE Menu | Collects information for the Process variables for the sending file. |
| RECEIVING FILE Menu | Collects the information for the Process variables for the receiving file. |
The relationship of these four panels is illustrated in the following diagram.
