Change Directory Command Settings

The Change Directory command changes the current directory. This command is only used in conjunction with other commands.

To Change the Current Directory

1. In From/To select the Connection objects that connect to the source and destination hosts.

2. Drag the Change Directory command from the left pane and drop it onto the editor in the middle.

3. In Path, select a connection object. The only two objects available here are the ones that you have selected in the From and To fields at the top of the FTP Job definition page, above the editor.

   Click the browse icon to open a dialog where you can search for a file or directory on the host. For more information, see Browsing to Directories and Files.

4. In Path, specify the absolute or relative path to change to.

5. If you do not want the Job to abort if this command fails, deselect the Abort job on command failure option.

6. Optionally add a description of the command under Description. The text you enter here is not written to the Job report. To write a message to the Job report, use an Echo command. For more information, see Echo Command Settings.
