Context file
Description This command copies a file or all files in a directory from a source URL to a destination URL. At
least one of the specified URLs should be a local URL. The optional wildcard (*) can be used to copy
multiple files that share a common (partial) prefix and/or (partial) suffix.
When a file is copied to a destination with the same file name, the original file is overwritten by the
new file specified in the operation. The following prompt appears if the destination file already exists:
“Overwrite destination file (y/n)?”
For example:
To copy a file named srcfile in a directory called test on cf1 to a file called
destfile in a directory called production on cf1, the syntax is:
sr1>file cf1:\ # copy cf2-/test/srcfile/production/destfile

tion file name of 121201.cfg, the FTP syntax is:
